Sixty years after Quincy Jones first moved to Paris in his early 20s, he still thinks of the city as a second home. In QUINCY JONES: A MUSICAL CELEBRATION IN PARIS, the celebrated musician, producer and composer revisits the City of Light and performs in front of a capacity crowd at the AccorHotels Arena. Bringing together nearly 100 world-class musicians, including a symphony orchestra conducted by Jules Buckley and a line-up of special guests, Jones puts on a show that celebrates a collection of songs from his remarkable career.
QUINCY JONES: A MUSICAL CELEBRATION IN PARIS takes you on a musical journey through a range of musical genres he’s dabbled in throughout his illustrious career. From the popular instrumental “Soul Bossa Nova,” to the pop hit “Billie Jean,” to the blues classic “Let the Good Times Roll,” Jones’ vast variety of work and musical influence is on full display throughout the concert.
