This is an arrangement of Norwegian Wood, composed by John Lennon and Paul McCartney.  It is written in a bright improvisational style; with changes of key.

Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown) is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1965 album Rubber Soul. It was written mainly by John Lennon, with lyrical contributions from Paul McCartney, and credited to the Lennon–McCartney songwriting partnership. Influenced by the introspective lyrics of Bob Dylan, the song is considered a milestone in the Beatles' development as songwriters. The track features a sitar part, played by lead guitarist George Harrison, that marked the first appearance of the Indian string instrument on a Western rock recording. The song was a number 1 hit in Australia when released on a single there in 1966, coupled with Nowhere Man. 

Norwegian Wood Lyrics:

[Verse 1: John Lennon]
I once had a girl
Or should I say, she once had me?
She showed me her room
Isn't it good, Norwegian wood?

[Bridge: John Lennon & Paul McCartney]
She asked me to stay and she told me to sit anywhere
So I looked around and I noticed there wasn't a chair

[Verse 2: John Lennon]
I sat on the rug
Biding my time, drinking her wine
We talked until two
And then she said, It's time for bed

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge: John Lennon & Paul McCartney]
She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh
I told her I didn't and crawled off to sleep in the bath

[Verse 3: John Lennon]
And when I awoke
I was alone, this bird had flown
So I lit a fire
Isn't it good, Norwegian wood?

The song's lyrics describe the Grinch as being unpleasant, foul-smelling, bad-mannered, despicable, and diabolical, using increasingly creative put-downs, metaphors, similes and off-hand comments by the singer, beginning with the opening line you're a mean one, Mr. Grinch. The song has been incorporated into most other adaptations of the story. In the 2000 live-action film, Jim Carrey performs the song in character as the Grinch, singing about himself.

All Is Full of Love is a song by Icelandic musician Björk from her third studio album, Homogenic (1997). The lyrics were inspired by love in spring and Ragnarök of Norse mythology; released as a single with a music video directed by Chris Cunningham. The video depicts Björk as a robot being assembled in a factory, who passionately kisses another identical robot. The video is often cited as one of the best of all time and a milestone in computer animation; it has been displayed in art exhibitions and was on display at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. This version draws upon the original version of the song, but also upon other choral and instrumental versions of the song to create a new arrangement for concert band.

In My Life is a song that truly needs no introduction! Released by the Beatles on their 1965 album Rubber Soul, this song was a milestone for John Lennon -- it was the first time he'd ever written about his own life, describing his childhood experiences and the people and places he'd encountered along the way. The song soon became widely beloved around the world, and to this day, it's still one of the most iconic Beatles hits; it was even named by Mojo magazine as the greatest song of all time! And with lyrics like But of all these friends and lovers, there is no one compares to you, it's also become one of the most popular wedding requests of all time -- so you really can't go wrong adding this one to your gig books! This Cellobat arrangement for your string quartet brings the original to life with beautiful lush harmonies, soaring melodies, and even the Bach-style interlude in the middle, for a chart that will be just as much fun to play as it is to listen to!

This is an original tune and was inspired by a walk I had with my wife and daughter in Saltburn, a seaside resort just a few miles from where I live. It's a happy feel good tune. The sheet music is for piano solo and it shows the tune more clearly than the YouTube video as a stride piano/ragtime piece with a swing bass left hand.
I take it through 3 keys of C, Db and D major. As usual the left hand can be simplified by playing any 10ths as single notes or octaves. Bass notes can often be played an octave higher to lessen the distance stretched. I don't notate dynamics, pedal or fingering as I prefer to leave such issues to the discretion of the individual pianist. Teachers, in any event, can never agree on these things. Also please be aware this is a piano solo and doesn't include notation for the other instruments in my YouTube video. I write all my tunes as piano solos and they are perfect in this format so will have a full sound throughout.
I hope you have as much fun playing this tune as I did writing and arranging it.

In the 1960s Paul McCartney's girlfriend Jane Asher got him interested in the music of Antonio Vivaldi. This led to the inspiration of having the accompaniment to Eleanor Rigby played by a string octet when the song was recorded for the Beatles' 1966 album Revolver. It was a sharp break, both in the music and the words, from the current conventions of pop music, and proved to be a milestone in the Beatles transformation from a pop/rock stage act to the experimental, recording-oriented band of their later years. This arrangement preserves the intimate, melancholy flavor of the original recording.
