New York, New York is really a song that needs no introduction! Written as the theme for the Martin Scorsese film of the same name in 1977, the song was originally performed by Liza Minnelli, and her version received a Golden Globe nomination that year. However, it didn't really become a mainstream hit until 1978, when Frank Sinatra included it in his performances at Radio City Music Hall; his version quickly became a massive success, and it's now considered one of his signature songs. To this day, it's still one of the best-known songs of all time about New York City, and it's been included in AFI's list of the top 100 songs in American cinema -- so you can't go wrong adding this one to your gig books! This Cellobat arrangement for your string quartet features the soaring melodies, catchy big-band horn riffs, fun jazz harmonies, and feel-good vibe of the original for a chart your group will love to play...and you're sure to get your audience singing along, too! Rated advanced-intermediate for a few tricky rhythms and accidentals; this will be playable for more advanced students and sightreadable for professionals.
