I believe the answer is:

do re mi

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'series of notes' is the definition.
'do-re-mi' can be an answer for 'notes' (I have seen 'Musical notes' mean 'do-re-mi' so perhaps 'notes' could also mean 'do-re-mi'). I'm not certain of the 'series of' bit.

'tudor emissary kept hidden' is the wordplay.
'hidden' indicates a hidden word.
'DO-RE-MI' is hidden within 'tudor emissary kept'.

Can you help me to learn more?
