A string quartet arrangement of the song God Only Knows is a song written by Brian Wilson and Tony Asher for American rock band the Beach Boys, released in May 1966 on the group's album Pet Sounds. The song names God in its title and lyrics, which was unusual for a pop single at the time. The sentiments expressed in the lyrics were not specific to any God, and could be addressed to any higher force, being a song about moving forward after loss. Wilson said that his and Asher's intention was to create the feeling of being blind but in being blind, you can see more.This arrangement will get the job done for a wedding ceremony or party where you want to play a hit tune that everyone knows.

Brass Quintet Horn,Trombone,Trumpet,Tuba - Digital Download SKU: A0.1460774 By The Beach Boys. By Brian Wilson and Tony Asher. Arranged by Will Corbin. Pop. 19 pages. Will Corbin #1039674. Published by Will Corbin (A0.1460774). Paul McCartney once called God Only Knows the greatest song ever written.” That might in part be because Brian Wilson's previous work concentrated heavily on fast cars, nubile girls and surfboards. But there's no question it's a beautiful song, and one that lends itself nicely and fairly easily to an adaptation for brass quintet. This arrangement is for two trumpets, horn, trombone and tuba and relies a great deal on the same soaring French horn sound that Wilson and his writing partner, Tony Asher, used in the original.If you need alternative instrumentation, I'm happy to accommodate.
