A fun, challenging arrangement for four cellos, preferably five if you can find a fifth cellist. Originally for voice and piano, this version also has elements of Berlioz' and Liszt's orchestral adaptations.

Cellos 1-4 each take one of the vocal "parts"
Cello 1: the narrator
Cello 2: the son
Cello 3: the Erlkonig
Cello 4: the father

The accompanying parts are passed around among the players, so nobody is playing endless triplets. Parts 1-4 all get the melody and the opening "horse" theme.

All parts go into treble clef. All parts are difficult, but parts 4 and 5 are easier than the others.

The Silver Swan by Orlando Gibbons (1583-1625), arranged for 5 cellos by Miranda Wilson. This PDF file contains the score and 5 parts.

This arrangement of Coldplay's Viva la Vida for cello ensemble was originally created for a Boulder Cello Project collaboration with Chase the Music. An 11-page score and four separate two-page cello parts are included. It can be played by groups as small as a quartet and works best with at least two cellists per part.

The thick texture of a cello ensemble is offset with driving articulated rhythms to bring vibrant energy to this piece that can only be offered by strings. In concert settings, optionally add driving bass drum quarter notes throughout, slightly ahead of the beat. Duration is approximately 4:05 at the indicated tempo.

The 1986 smash hit and worldwide Number 1, 'The Final Countdown' by Sweden's Europe. This arrangement for cello quartet (with optional double bass) is perfect for school groups and professional ensembles. The Cello 1 part has tenor clef (approx Grade 6 standard), but has an ossia part underneath an octave lower in bass clef making the whole ensemble playable by grade 5 and under. There are challenges in most parts, and the double bass part sounds great played on electric bass (just ask a drummer to join you for a full rock band effect). Arranged by professional cellist, arranger and teacher Dury Loveridge, this is a tried and tested arrangement.

This arrangement for intermediate and beginner mixed cello ensemble brings Game of Thrones to your cello class, cello ensemble, or teaching studio! The parts are suitable for doubling as needed to accommodate groups of more than 4 cellists.

Some of the parts require all neck positions, and due to the original key, extensions in 1st position are also required for the easier Cello III and IV parts. The parts are distributed so that all have important melodic sections as well.

The Wellerman sea shanty arranged for 4 cellos by Alison Gillies.

Watch: https://youtu.be/7E4h8j8gbCU

Get your cello quartet on board with the Tik Tok sea shanty craze with this arrangement. All parts have a turn at the melody and the key (C minor) is the same as the original videos so you can even play along with them if you so wish! Soon may the Wellerman come!

THE BEETHOVEN DUETS FOR VIOLONCELLO By Joe Procopio The Beethoven Duets by Joe Procopio is a collection of duets that artist -composer Joe Procopio has adapted and arranged from the 9 Scherzi found in Ludwig van Beethoven?s 9 Symphonies. These duets are unique. They can be performed as a duet for Cello I and Cello II and as a Cello ensemble in groups of 2, 4, 6, 8, etc. Each Scherzo is published for many other orchestral instruments. They are published individually for each instrument; in a Three Volume Collection with 3 Scherzi in each volume; and in a Complete Collection containing all three volumes.Volume One has Scherzo No.1, Scherzo No. 2 and Scherzo No.3. Volume Two has Scherzo No.4, Scherzo No 5 and Scherzo No.6.Volume Three has Scherzo No.7, Scherzo No.8 and Scherzo No.9.The Complete Collection has all 3 Volumes for each instrument with all 9 Scherzi.What?s more they will soon be published in the Procopio PlayAlong Music Program. This is an exclusive MP3 music audio program personally designed and developed in which Player 1 plays along with a music audio track for Player 2.?To be sure, The Beethoven Scherzi Duets for Violoncello are a marvel of Beethoven?s skill with sections reaching the sublime. It is my deep felt personal belief that these Scherzi will bring you great pleasure and long lasting satisfaction.? Joe ProcopioAN INTRODUCTION TO THE BEETHOVEN DUETS By Joe ProcopioBecause of the complexities, range and sonorities inherent in all of the Beethoven Symphonies, it may seem impossible to transcribe any one movement as a duet that is true to the composer. Nevertheless, I believe these duets contain the heart, soul and essence of Beethoven?s melodies, rhythms and expressions; even though these works are tiny when they are compared to the Master?s great musical creations which have no equal.In fact, there is no comparison. However, my sincere hope is that since I have rendered some of Beethoven?s music as duets, his music is now more readily available to all permitting a greater number of musicians and all the people who hear their performances to come to know and love a bit of the world?s most valuable, breathtaking and beautiful music. In truth, Beethoven?s music has stood the test of time. He astonished people in his day whenever he performed his music or had his music played. He still does today. To be sure, his music has enhanced and enriched the lives of many of us for over 200 years.In performing and listening to these Scherzi you will find the whole of each work a marvel of Beethoven?s skill with sections reaching the sublime. Few composers have been able to write down on paper music of such incredible beauty that it reflects the awesome splendor of God?s creation. What comes to mind immediately is Beethoven?s ?Pastoral? Symphony No. 6. It has been said, that much of his music mirrors not only the magnificence of God?s creation but also the radiance of God the Creator himself.In any event, this music is simply amazing and awe-inspiring. A joy to listen to and to play. I know and can safely say without any hesitation or reservations that this collection will bring you much enjoyment.
