Displaying all reviews (2)This version only required minor adjustments to be played as a violin & cello duet. :)
violinstarchild
Its accurate to the song until the bridge and last chorus, where it adds harmonies and high belting that are not there in the original recording. I think it might be working off of some live or alternate version that Im not familiar with.
This is really not helpful for my goals. Im bringing the bridge and last chorus in to an audition, and its going to make the audition pianists job a lot harder when Im singing my part (the way it actually goes) and my melody doesnt match whats on the page at all.
