Miles Davis was the quintessential seeker living his life by the Dylan maxim,
"He not being born is busy dying."
This lecture will explore various ways that Miles continued
to renew and reinvent his music and persona from the 1950s
through to his death in September 1991.
Speaker: Dr. Rob Bowman from York University and
Grammy Award-winning music scholar.
