Thank you for checking out my String Quartet arrangement of ?Paparazzi? by Lady Gaga. This arrangement can also be performed with a String Trio, since the 2nd Violin part is optional. This song has a tango feel to it, so it fits very well in a cocktail hour or dinner party!

This is just one of my many special arrangements. Check out my full listing on Sheet Music Plus! I am always adding new items for String Duo, Trio, and Quartet. One thing that sets my arrangements apart from others is that I fit all of my parts on 2 sheets of music. This makes it so the songs can fit into a binder, without the need for flipping pages!

Another great thing (for multi-instrumental arrangements) is that I include cue lines on each part, so that every player in the ensemble can see one other person?s music at the same time. This is so amazingly useful and has saved countless performances in the past. If someone skips a beat or misses a measure, you can now see where they are and reconnect! This also helps with sight-reading and keeping the group together in general.

This is a String Orchestra arrangement of this great song by Freddie Mercury and the rock group Queen. This song is a lot of fun, and a very inspiring song to do for any occasion!

Since the Vitamin String Quartet cover of this tune was used on the soundtrack for Bridgerton, people have been going crazy for it! A catchy little number that is the obvious next addition to your trio gig pads!

Written in 1951, this song has been a hit for Perry Como, Harry Connick Jnr. and Michael Bubl�, among others. This arrangement for string quartet has plenty of interest for all players, with lots of light running triplet movement throughout.

Puccini's gorgeous string quartet Crisantemi (Chrysanthemums) has been skillfullyadapted for string orchestra by L. C. Harnsberger. This is one of Puccini'srare instrumental works that has unfortunately been overshadowed by his numerous operas.Audiences will be mesmerized by the beautiful melody and bold chromaticism.Crisantemi was written as an elegy for the 1890 death of Puccini's friend theDuke of Aosta (formerly King Amadeo I of Spain). Puccini claimed that he was so moved by the passing of his friend that he composed the entire piece in one night. Crisantemi features a wide emotional and dynamic range which makes it a perfect addition to any concert.

From String Quartet No. 1, this is sure to be a best-seller. This beautiful arrangement is quite accessible to advanced-intermediate students. Will require treble and tenor clef reading for upper parts.

Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen, arranged for Cello Quartet by Alison Gillies.

*Video demonstrates the very similar quartet version of this trio arrangement.* An accurate and challenging rendition of the popular waltz from Studio Ghibli's movie "Howl's Moving Castle". Lots of fun for all players, and many tempo changes to coordinate. 5 minutes.

Arranged for [2 violins + cello] or [violin + viola + cello]. Includes both a Violin 2 and Viola version of the middle part.

My string arrangements are faithful to the original song, with ample rehearsal letters, minimal bowings, and only minor adjustments to pop melodies to facilitate playing and sightreading. Parts are error-free, tested and enjoyed by professional musicians at weddings and private events.
