One of the biggest and most ubiquitous hits of the early 2000's, The Middle was a breakout hit for Jimmy Eat World that placed them among the ranks of other big names of the day like Weezer, Blink-182 and Green Day. It was impossible not to know this song back then, and it has since become a classic throwback song for the millennial generation! This arrangement for violin and cello duet maintains the fun upbeat tempo, catchy melodic lines, and dynamic contrasts of the original, and you'll definitely get everybody singing along! Perfect for pop concerts, solo & ensemble contests, parties, corporate events, or any occasion that needs some nostalgic pop-punk, this chart will be sightreadable for professionals and playable for advanced-intermediate students (there's nothing too tricky here, but there is a guitar solo in the violin part that goes by pretty quickly!).

Hakuna Matata is one of the best loved songs from the 1994 Disney film The Lion King, reprised in both the Broadway stage show and the 2019 remake. This version is arranged as a Duet for one Violin and one Cello.

Written by Elton John with lyrics by Tim Rice, the original version was sung by Jimmy Cliff and Lebo M. Hakuna Matata means no worries in Swahili. The song was nominated for an Oscar in 1995 but was was beaten to the award by Can You Feel the Love Tonight, another song from the same film. 

Musicians at an intermediate standard will find this ideal for formal and informal concert performances. Total performance time is around three minutes. This version contains three different choruses as sung in the film, with instrumental interludes in between. In the films, this instrumental music lies underneath the spoken dialogue.
