Originally inspired by a spiritual, "Stand By Me" was written and recorded in 1961 by famed RandB singer-songwriter Ben E. King. The catchy, soulful tune immediately went to #1 on the RandB charts, and ended up becoming a Top Ten on the Billboard charts twice -- once for its original release, and again in 1986 when it was used as the theme song for a movie of the same name. This song has been deemed "culturally and historically significant" and it has remained one of the most beloved songs in history for decades, so you can't go wrong having this one in your gig books! This Cellobat arrangement for string quartet maintains the fun groove, catchy melody, and joyful feel of the original, while adding in a number of beautiful harmonic and countermelodic layers that put this chart above and beyond the rest! Rated intermediate -- there are some fun syncopated rhythms throughout, but none of the parts go above 2nd position, and this will be playable for students and easily sightreadable for professionals.

Why choose Cellobat Charts arrangements? For any musician who knows what they're doing, the answer is easy: just listen to them.

My arrangements are guaranteed to be energetic, fun to play, and enjoyable to listen to, whether or not you're familiar with the original songs. Hear the difference for yourself!

"Feels Like Home" was originally penned for a musical by Oscar-winning film score composer Randy Newman; it has since been covered as a stand-alone song by a number of different artists. The most successful version of the song by far was this one, sung by Chantal Kreviazuk and featured in the TV show Dawson's Creek and the movie How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days. This version for string quartet is a beautiful rendition with lots of feeling, featuring soaring melodies, gorgeous layers of harmony, and the ever-present piano rhythms guiding the song along in the V2 and viola parts. This arrangement was commissioned for a wedding, and it's definitely the perfect love ballad for not only ceremonies but cocktail hour, receptions, private events, solo and ensemble contests, or any other occasion that needs a midtempo sentimental groove. Rated intermediate - playable for students and easily sightreadable for professionals.

"This I Promise You" is one of *NSYNC's most iconic love songs and a ubiquitous pop hit of the early 2000's. Originally written by Richard Marx, this song lasted 13 weeks at number 1 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart after its release, so any child of the 90's probably knows this one by heart! I had the honor of performing this song with Richard Marx himself as part of the quartet-in-residence for his 3-week residency "Satisfied: Only The Hits" at the Flamingo Hotel in Las Vegas, so I'm super excited to bring you my own version!

This arrangement for string quartet will be perfect for pop concerts, solo & ensemble concerts, weddings, receptions, and any other occasion that needs some boy band throwback nostalgia - you're sure to get everyone singing along! Full of catchy melodies, beautiful layered harmonies, and a laid back R&B-style groove, this arrangement is just as much fun to listen to as it is to play. Rated intermediate - there is nothing very difficult in any of the parts and this chart will be easily sightreadable for professionals, but students might need a minute to look at the syncopated rhythms in the violin parts.

There is nothing above first position in the V2, viola, and cello parts, and only a few notes higher than that in V1. There are a few tied rhythms in but nothing too complicated.
