Product Description
Penny Lane, by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, arranged for String Quartet by Tim Crooks. This arrangement retains much of the original writing from the Beatles' recording, but has been transposed a semitone higher for ease. Suitable for more advanced intermediate level players (ABRSM grade 5) and above, this arrangement is great to play and a wonderful insight into the inner workings of the Beatles' music. There are some higher positions for violins and swung rhythms for all.
