Program notes
Bassist, clarinetist, composer, arranger, and producer Marcus Miller rose to fame during the eighties with his work alongside Miles Davis, notably composing the latter's Tutu album, one of the jazz legend's greatest successes. A prolific career ensued, during which Miller completed close to 500 recordings, working with such musicians as Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, Beyoncé, Eric Clapton, Wayne Shorter, Quincy Jones, David Sanborn, Elton John, and Aretha Franklin.
