Grammy Award-winning artist Larnell Lewis leads an electrifying tribute to the late great Quincy Jones- the legend who transformed the global music landscape. Over six decades, America's most loved producer/arranger shaped the sound of popular music, masterfully bridging jazz, rock, rhythm and blues, pop and hip-hop.
This one off event features Q's phenomenal solo works including "The Dude," "Back on The Block," and "Q's Jook Joint," alongside chart-topping hits he produced for Patti Austin, The Brothers Johnson, and Michael Jackson.

Toronto's finest performers unite on stage to pay homage to this visionary producer, composer, and artistic force. Guiding the night with masterful musicianship and deep reverence, Larnell Lewis brings his signature versatility and collaborative spirit—hallmarks of his own celebrated career—to reimagine Jones' timeless sound.
