Stranger Things, the theme that's so cool you DON'T skip the intro on Netflix. We had seen some pretty interesting covers of this on YouTube, including Nicholas Yee's version. But who can find 8 cellists to play with? You'd have better luck finding Hogwarts Castle as a Muggle than finding EIGHT cellists in the same area. (Explanation for any Muggles here: It's impossible to find Hogwarts if you're a Muggle. It's all in "Hogwarts a History". But we digress.)
So we set out to create a FANTASTICAL version for just two instruments. This one really showcases the cello, as it jumps from position to position, covering a lot of lines (or Adam bows one line and left hand pizz another simultaneously - beginning at minute 1:45. Always a cool effect!). Both violin and cello get their moments, though, and overall it's a really fun piece to play for both instrumentalists!
If you enjoyed this video and blog, check out "Beauty and the Beast Prologue" for Violin & Cello. A truly epic arrangement of the opening music from Disney's classic movie.
