By The Beatles. Arranged by Ray Thompson. 20th Century,Contemporary Classical,Pop,Wedding,Funeral. Score,Set of Parts. 8 pages. Published by RayThompsonMusic (H0.118141-222300).Eleanor Rigby" is a song by the Beatles, released on the 1966 album Revolver and as a 45 rpm single. It was written by Paul McCartney, and credited to Lennon–McCartney."Eleanor Rigby" does not have a standard pop backing. None of the Beatles played instruments on it, though John Lennon and George Harrison did contribute harmony vocals. Like the earlier song "Yesterday", "Eleanor Rigby" employs a classical string ensemble—in this case an octet of studio musicians, comprising four violins, two cellos, and two violas, all performing a score composed by producer George Martin.It is arranged here for standard wind quintet. I have not simply transcribed the string parts, but have added sustaining notes in both horn and clarinet. The melody is carried by the four treble clef instruments. I do not have tutti instrumentation all the way through.
