Coldplay's 2014 hit "A Sky Full Of Stars," co-written and produced with Avicii, was an instant top 10 hit on the charts in 16 countries and received a Grammy nomination. The song was Coldplay's first dance track, but the lyrics are more along the lines of a sweet love ballad, making this song a popular request for weddings and receptions. This Cellobat arrangement for violin and cello duet was originally commissioned for a wedding ceremony, but it's also perfect for pop concerts, solo & ensemble contests, receptions, parties, and even proposals -- with its beautiful soaring melodies and driving beat, it will be sure to get your audience dancing! Rated advanced-intermediate for some tricky syncopated rhythms (the same ones repeat throughout), but this arrangement will be playable for students and sightreadable for professionals.

Maren Morris' hit pop-country song "The Bones" was released as a single in May 2019 and soon became a hit, earning Morris a Grammy nomination for Best Country Song. And it's no wonder -- it's hard not to love it! With its lyrics about building a solid relationship and its unique hook, catchy chorus, and upbeat rhythmic groove, "The Bones" is bound to be a hit at wedding ceremonies, cocktails, receptions, proposals, solo & ensemble contests, or any occasion that needs a good-spirited love song. This Cellobat arrangement is as much fun to play as it is to listen to, and you're sure to get your audience singing along! Rated advanced-intermediate for a number of tricky rhythms throughout, this chart will be sightreadable for professionals and playable for more advanced students.
