Meaning and background
The story behind Tutti
Tutti is an Italian word meaning 'all', particularly familiar in classical music as an instruction for the whole orchestra or choir to play or sing. It contrasts with *solo*, when one performer takes the lead. That is a real Italian-language and musical connection, not an invented given-name translation. The doubled consonant belongs to the Italian spelling, though English speakers may simplify the pronunciation.
