In this Level 2.5 (Intermediate) arrangement, Martin Lass has arranged the hit song, We Don't Talk About Bruno, for solo viola and piano accompaniment. Guitar chords and chord boxes are included. We Don't Talk About Bruno is a song from Disney's 2021 animated feature film, Encanto, with music and lyrics written by Lin-Manuel Miranda. It was released by Walt Disney Records as part of the film's soundtrack in November, 2021. It has achieved many accolades and charted No. 1 or Top Ten across the world, including No. 1 on US Billboard Hot 100. Wikipedia notes that, musically, We Don't Talk About Bruno eschews Disney's traditional formula of a sentimental ballad performed by a solo character, opting for a subdued, mid-tempo tune blending Latin music styles such as salsa and guajira with pop, hip hop, dance and Broadway elements, sung by an ensemble and climaxing in a polyphonic outro. This arrangement has been specifically tailored for intermediate-level cello while retaining all of the original elements of the song, as well as some original interpretative elements. The lead line combines some of the different voices in the original song. The key have been changed from the original C minor to the more viola-friendly D minor.
