This arrangement for string orchestra is based on the cover that Disturbed performed on the original Simon & Garfunkel song The Sound of Silence. The arrangement includes the score and parts around Grade level 3-3/12. This score provides educational opportunities for young orchestras with specific concepts such as syncopated rhythms, mixed meter of 4/4 to 2/4, divisi parts, shared/passing melody across sections, and very specific dynamics to create balance.

This arrangement is the whole song, all of the versus, and the words to the song are included in score and parts when that specific instrument has the melody to help with rhythm reading as well as to provide the option to teach parts with singing them. There is shifting in the violin 1, viola and cello parts. Due to the nature of the members of Disturbed vocal range, the cello has the melody most often. Hope you enjoy this arrangement!
