Product Description
Quite possibly the biggest hit song of 2019, "Old Town Road" put Lil Nas X at the top of the Billboard charts for a record-breaking 19 consecutive weeks. Controversy over whether this hit belonged on the country charts only served to boost its popularity, and it has since garnered a number of awards including three Grammy nominations. This arrangement for solo violin was originally commissioned for a wedding, but it will also be great for receptions, cocktail parties, solo & ensemble contests, and many other events. No accompaniment part -- it stands alone, or can be played with a backing track for solo gigs. Rated intermediate, this chart will be playable for students and easily sightreadable for professionals -- there are a handful of tied rhythms throughout and the notes reach 3rd position.
