This arrangement is one of the five songs from the Kind of Blue Orchestral suite.
The piece utilizes some of the improvised material from the iconic Kind of Blue Album and treats it orchestrally. The piece uses a classical size orchestra, there are no improvisation sections, or rhythm section. Thereby creating a fully formed classical composition. Miles Davis's music, once improvised, is now a formal composition that can be performed in orchestral concert halls by any orchestra, anywhere in the world.
This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
