String Quintet Cello,Double Bass,Viola,Violin - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1328844 By Kylie Minogue. By Cathy Dennis and Rob Davis. Arranged by Des McNutty. Disco,Pop. 28 pages. Des Press #916865. Published by Des Press (A0.1328844). Can't Get You out of My Head was sung by Kylie Minogue on her 8th album, Fever. It was released in 2001 and charted at number one in 40 countries. Can't Get You out of My Head is an example of a perfect pop song. Classified by some as Neo-Disco, it draws heavily on influences from Trance and Electronic Dance Music (EDM) styles but with its own twists, making the heavily synthesized production sound both fresh and familiar. The melodies and lyrics sound deceptively simple and the hook is just la la la. All of this is again matched perfectly with the performer; Minogue's veneer of naïve vacuity that belies the consummate behind. In addition to all this, the entire main vocal part fits in the five-note starting position for piano students - c, d, e, f, g - making this song an absolute gift for music teachers. Well, 20-odd years ago at least. This arrangement for String Quintet is a relatively straight-forward idiomatic transcription in the same tonality as the original recording, so you could even play along with it for fun. The optional beginners' parts use only open strings. There are no bar numbers. Rehearsal marks are there for navigation. Level: Easy/Intermediate plus beginners. Enjoy!
