Viva La Vida was released by Coldplay as a single in 2008 to immediate critical and commercial success. It went on to become the band's first #1 US and UK single, and it won the Grammy Award for Song of the Year in 2009; with its catchy string hook and upbeat melody, it's no wonder that this song is now a ubiquitous request! Unfortunately, there are many existing arrangements of Viva La Vida that are so boring and repetitive that they put your players to sleep -- but I'm here to tell you that thankfully, this Cellobat arrangement for your string quartet is NOT one of those! This chart gives all your players enough variety to keep everyone awake -- with its lyrical melodies, beautiful countermelodies, dynamic variations, and driving beat, it will be just as much fun to play as it is to listen to. Originally written for a wedding ceremony, this one will also be great for cocktail hour, receptions, parties, corporate events, solo & ensemble contests and any other occasion in need of some good vibes! This is an intermediate level arrangement that will be easily learnable for students and sightreadable for professionals; there are a few tricky rhythms, but all the parts stay in first position throughout.Sarah “Cellobat†Chaffee is an in-demand acoustic & electric cellist and string arranger.
