The National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master is the nation’s highest honor for Jazz, and Flushing Town Hall is proud to continue a tradition we began twenty years ago: our NEA Jazz Masters Concert! Our 2026 concert will gather together a powerhouse of talent to pay tribute to one of the most innovative, influential, and acclaimed figures in the history of music: Miles Davis.  

Led by trumpeter and 2012 NEA Jazz Master Jimmy Owens, the FTH stage will welcome pianist and 2010 NEA Jazz Master Kenny Barron, drummer and 2021 NEA Jazz Master Terri Lyne Carrington, bassist Kenny Davis, saxophonist and 2022 NEA Jazz Master Donald Harrison, and guitarist Michael Howell. This suite of brilliant, acclaimed musicians will champion Davis and his contributions to the field. Get ready for one unmissable night of Jazz!
