The Music of Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson’s music has drawn our attention worldwide as a people for over fifty years. Joins us as we explore some of his hits and profoundly musical deep cuts through original arrangements for the Calgary Jazz Orchestra, as we speak the language that he, his musicians and his producers, like Quincy Jones have created.

The Premiere of The Spectre Suite, composed by Johnny Summers
As the lights dim and the first haunting notes fill the air, step into a musical tapestry where ghostly apparitions, restless spirits and mysterious shadows come alive through sounds. Journey through an evening of spine-tingling melodies, cinematic tripe suspense and supernatural intrigue as the Calgary Jazz Orchestra brings eerie classics and thrilling film inspired music to the stage. Whether you’re drawn to tales of ghosts and legends or simply love an unforgettable night of live music, prepare for a spellbinding concert that will leave you enchanted long after the final note has faded.
Don’t miss this original suite, written and orchestrated by Johnny Summers.
