String Quartet Cello,String Quartet,Viola,Violin - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1406008 By Andy Williams. By Henry Mancini and Johnny Mercer. Arranged by Mike Spiller. 20th Century. 13 pages. Platypus Music #989058. Published by Platypus Music (A0.1406008). This string quartet arrangement of 'Moon River' from the 1961 movie 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' should be performed at a moderate tempo and not too fast. The melodic line is contained in the 1st violin part throughout. To add some sense of movement the cello part contains arpeggiated 'figures'. At the mid point the arrangement is transposed to another key which creates melodic interest.
