Music Awards at Montreal Jazz. Miles and Miles.

There are several awards given each year during the Montreal Jazz Festival. Some are new, some have long history. Oscar-Peterson Award is the oldest and probably most prestigious. The Miles Davis Award is the second oldest. It was created for the Festival’s 15th anniversary in 1994 to honour a great international jazz musician for the entire body of their work and influence in defining and expanding the jazz vocabulary. Multi-instrumentalist Marcus Miller (who actually played with Miles) was the 29th recipient of the Miles-Davis Award for 2024. Previous recipients of this award are Avishai Cohen (2023), Joshua Redman (2019), Béla Fleck and the Flecktones (2018), Kenny Barron (2016), Al Di Meola (2015), Terence Blanchard (2014), Charles Lloyd (2013), Ron Carter (2012), Stanley Clarke (2011), Sonny Rollins (2010), Ornette Coleman (2009), McCoy Tyner (2008), Brad Mehldau (2006), Dave Holland (2005), Keith Jarrett (2004), Joe Zawinul (2003), Chick Corea (2002), John Scofield (1998), Herbie Hancock (1997), Wayne Shorter (1996), and John McLaughlin (1994).
