Product Description
When people think of Guns n' Roses, "Paradise City" is often one of the first songs that come to mind -- and with good reason! The song was released as a single from their debut album in 1989, and it became an instant hit; its massive popularity made it the band's third single to reach the top 10. Now regarded as one of Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time and a signature song for the band, pretty much every rock fan in the world can sing along with this classic anthem -- so you can't go wrong having this one in your gig books! This Cellobat arrangement for your string quartet is a full-length arrangement (clocking in at almost 7 minutes) featuring the hard-hitting riffs, soaring vocal lines, guitar solos, and catchy choruses of the original. Everyone gets something fun to play here, and your group will love playing it just as much as your audience loves listening to it! Rated advanced; there isn't anything super difficult here, but there are a some tricky scales and rhythms throughout, so I recommend looking this one over before playing. But most of all...have fun! :)
