Orchestra, String Orchestra - Level 3 - Digital Download
SKU: A0.1571700
By John Denver. By Jay Livingston and Ray Evans. Arranged by Kyle Pudenz. This edition: pdf. Christmas, Contemporary, Holiday, Standards. 24 pages. ViolinVagabond Music #1143561. Published by ViolinVagabond Music (A0.1571700).A vintage "Nashville Sound" take on a staple of the holiday season. This arrangement of Silver Bells for string orchestra, vocal solo and rhythm section was originally inspired by Anne Murray's 1981 recording of the tune, but puts the string section much more in the spotlight with sweeping melodic exchanges throughout the song. A perfect choice for your next holiday concert whether you are a professional orchestra or a school/community group looking for a fresh spin on a timeless Christmas standard.
Similarly to the Anne Murray recording, this arrangement is in Eb major with a half-step modulation on verse 2. A drum set chart and "rhythm section" lead sheet are included if your ensemble is performing with keyboards, guitar, or other rhythm players who prefer chord charts over notated parts.
Instrumentation - Vocal solo, Strings, Drum Set, Lead Sheet
Difficulty level - Intermediate. Sight-readable by professional players, but could also be easily handled by a high-school or college level ensemble with some rehearsal.
Performance time - Approximately 3:00 or just under
