Product Description
Originally written and recorded in 1973 by Dolly Parton, "I Will Always Love You" was a massive success for the singer, reaching the top of the Billboard country charts not once but twice. The popular song gained new life about a decade later with Whitney Houston's beautiful soul-ballad cover; Houston's recording was certified diamond, topped the charts all around the world, and became the best-selling single of all time by a female solo artist! Still massively popular to this day, the song is now a common request for weddings; this Cellobat arrangement for violin and cello duet was originally written for a wedding ceremony. Maintaining the soaring melodies, dynamic passion, and lovely harmonies of the original, and featuring a beautiful cello solo line at the beginning of the song, this chart is sure to pull at your audience's heartstrings! Rated advanced-intermediate for some tricky rhythms and a few high notes in the violin part; this will be learnable for more advanced students and sightreadable for professionals.
