About this score

Arranged for [Helix] String Quartet (Two Violins, Cello, and Bass). Sorry Violas! I apologize for such a long time in between postings. Expect some more Disney in the next few weeks. Once I get through finals I will be able to get back to writing some more music. Anyways, Most people have heard this song from the trailer of Planet Earth (which is amazing by the way). I hope you enjoy. Please feel free to comment and if you like it please favorite!

Great arrangement, Kski! Well, it could sound better in another key, wouldn´t? I think Bb, for example. But it sounds perfectly good! Thank you.

Thanks! I wanted to stay true to the original song but probably for performance purposes it would be better in D or something easier for strings. The main melody line causes some awkward shifts for the violins and bringing it down would probably be best. Thanks for your comment!

I like how you switch to pizzicato and back again. There's a lot of intervals. however.

Hey thanks! I'm curious what you mean by "intervals." The original song has lots of octaves if that is what you are referring to.
