Product Description
INSTRUMENTATION: TWO VIOLINS AND CELLO
Released by Roy Orbison in 1964, "Oh, Pretty Woman" (known to most people as simply "Pretty Woman") was an instant hit, spending three weeks at number 1 on the Billboard charts and selling over seven million copies. The song marked the high point in Orbison's career, and was later used as the title track for the movie Pretty Woman in 1990 and the later Broadway musical of the same name. But forget this introduction -- everyone in your audience will instantly recognize the introductory riff of this classic song! This Cellobat arrangement for your two-violin and cello trio is sure to be a hit at your gigs; maintaining the easy groove, catchy melody, and passionate dynamic builds of the original, this is a super cute chart that will be just as fun to play as it is to listen to. You're sure to get your audience singing along! Rated intermediate; this will be playable for students and sightreadable for professionals.
