In the footsteps of Toots
We all know his name and we all know his music. Different generations grew up with the music of Toots Thielemans, often without even realising it. His most succesful composition is Bluesette from 1962, but there are some tunes that might even sound more familiar to a lot of people. Toots composed the theme songs of television series Witse and Baantjer and mo-vies such as Midnight Cowboy and Turks Fruit. And who doesn’t knows the opening tune from Sesame Street?
The classic image of Toots is the one with his harmonica. But Toots was much more than that. In the fifties he played the guitar in the bands of jazz and pop greats Benny Goodman, Peggy Lee, Ella Fitzgerald, Quincy Jones, Bill Evans, Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder, Bil-ly Joel and Paul Simon. He was also a gifted whistler. Starting out as a simple boy from the Marolles in Brussels he grew up to be a source of inspiration for different generations of do-mestic and foreign musicians. Including you!
In this brochure you can find a list of all his works. Take the time to listen to some of his music and make a wise choice. Bluesette is a fine option of course, but Toots Thielemans has tons of other great songs. The sheet music to some of his songs is included in this brochure. The Royal Library of Belgium in Brussels holds more sheet music, also for bigger arrangements.
