So What Trumpet Solo - learn to play Miles Davis trumpet solo from the iconic tune So What.
There are many practice facilities in this app that can be customised to suit individual needs. Of particular value is being able to slow down the solo and the rhythm section accompaniment.
The real time Beat Counter above the notation which shows where you are in the bar really helps your reading if you need it.

Miles plays at 135bpm. You can start practising at 65 beats per minute (bpm) and you can add 10bpm until you can play up to the performance speed; bar by bar, phrase by phrase, with or without the recording of the trumpet or rhythm section.

There is no loss of quality at the slower speeds. This will help you keep in tune and to confidently hit the right notes.

When you can play the correct notes perfectly in tune and in time you can then, if you want, imitate the note bends and half valve techniques that Miles uses.

You will also be building up a bank of phrases that you can use in your own solo playing. Copying and studying the greats of the past is an ideal way of learning and gaining the confidence to develop your own style.
