Thrilled to Play This Miles Davis Classic!
As an adult learner who loves jazz, getting to play Marcus Miller's 'Tutu' with my community big band is a dream! The Michael Philip Mossman arrangement captures that iconic Miles Davis sultry hip-hop fusion sound perfectly. While Grade 4 is a good challenge, it's totally achievable and so rewarding to contribute to such a cool, modal piece. It makes you feel like you're really sounding like the record!

Solid, Contemporary Big Band Piece
'Tutu' is a well-arranged chart that delivers on its promise of a hip-hop fusion vibe. The Grade 4 difficulty ensures a professional sound for a working big band. Solos are clearly marked for trumpet and alto sax, and the parts are well-laid out. It's a great choice for specific gigs needing a modern, distinctive sound, though maybe not a generic function. Hal Leonard's charts usually have accurate chord symbols, making rhythm section prep quick.
