Product Description
*INSTRUMENTATION: 4 CELLOS*
"Heartbreaker," one of the most iconic songs in female rock history, was released by Pat Benatar as a single from her debut album in 1978. Originally released by an English singer named Jenny Darren, Benatar's cover proved to be her breakthrough song; it topped the Billboard charts for nearly 5 weeks and was ultimately named one of VH1's 100 best hard rock songs of all time. It has since been featured in video games, movies, TV shows, movies, and has generally become a staple of pop culture -- and now you can rock out on it with your cello buddies! This Cellobat arrangement for cello quartet is just as hard-hitting as the original, with epic vocal lines, powerful harmonies, a driving rock beat, and even a fun guitar solo. I guarantee your group will have a blast! Rated advanced-intermediate for tenor/treble clef and basic thumb position in some of the parts; this will be learnable 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. Every freelance musician has thrown hard-earned money away on questionable, error-filled charts by unknown arrangers from weird corners of the Internet. But watch out -- inferior arrangements not only make gigs less enjoyable to play, but they also make your group sound bad to your client and audience, no matter how great your players really are. That's why Cellobat Charts is here: to provide students and working string players alike with high-quality versions of highly requested music. 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! Full videos of many Cellobat Charts arrangements are available on YouTube so you know exactly what you're getting.
