This beloved contemporary song by BRENDAN GRAHAM and ROLF LOVLAND (made popular by Josh Groban) is arranged as an instrumental trio
(for VIOLIN and CELLO duet with PIANO accompaniment). The beautiful, lyrical style of this instrumental piece creates a peaceful, endearing atmosphere.
Ranges for each instrument are as follows: VIOLIN ~ F#4 to B5; CELLO ~ E2 to G3. This is an excellent selection for early-intermediate string players since all notes for the violin and cello are playable in the first position with one exception for the cello (the F#2 requires an extension/stretch of the 4th finger on the C string or shift to 2nd position).
Both the CELLO and VIOLIN get to lead with the melody at times making it enjoyable and equally challenging for both players while adding variety for the listeners. For the first verse, the two parts alternate playing the melody as a solo followed by playing as a duet for the chorus. For the second verse, the CELLO and VIOLIN play as a duet, alternating between melody and harmony. The audio sample begins in measure 14, at the beginning of the first chorus where both instruments are playing.
