One of the world’s most popular saxophonists is coming to Victoria in December to spread some holiday cheer with some seasonal hits, as multi-million selling instrumentalist Kenny G announces The Miracles Holiday & Hits Tour 2017.

On this highly-anticipated holiday tour, Kenny G will perform some of his greatest hits, including songs from his 1994 smash album Miracles: The Holiday Album, which ranks as one of the most successful holiday albums ever – with over eight million copies sold.

In a recording career that spans almost three decades and 23 albums, Grammy Award winning saxophonist Kenny G has grafted elements of R&B, pop and Latin to a jazz foundation solidifying his reputation as the premiere artist in contemporary jazz.

Since the early ‘80s, his combination of unparalleled instrumental chops and indelible melodies has resulted in sales of more than 75 million records worldwide (45 million in the US alone) and more than a dozen climbs to the top of Billboard’s contemporary jazz chart.

Kenny G has collaborated with some of the biggest names in the business during his legendary career, ranging from Michael Bolton to Weezer to Whitney Houston to Katy Perry.

On Jan. 27, Grammy award winning saxophonist Kenny G released his fourteenth studio album Brazilian Nights via Concord Records. The ten song set, Kenny’s tribute to the ‘masters’ of Bossa Nova, is a mixture of classics and Kenny G originals.

A presale starts September 14 and tickets are available to the general public September 15 at 10 a.m.
