Product Description
"I Want It That Way" is one of the Backstreet Boys' biggest hits, and anyone who grew up in the 90's and early 2000's probably knows this one by heart! This version for solo cello was originally written for a wedding cocktail hour, but it will also be perfect for wedding ceremonies, receptions, pop concerts, solo & ensemble contest, and any other occasion that needs some boy band throwback nostalgia -- you're sure to get everyone singing along! No accompaniment part -- it stands alone, or can be played with a backing track for solo gigs. (Note that if you're using a backing track, this chart has been transposed to the more cello-friendly key of G major.) This arrangement is rated advanced-intermediate for some high notes in tenor clef and a few tricky rhythms, and it will be playable for students and sightreadable for professionals.
