A Joy to Play!
'God Only Knows' is such an iconic song from The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds, and this arrangement really delivers! Playing it with my community band feels incredible – it truly captures the beautiful harmonies of the original. The Grade 2-3 level is perfect for me; challenging enough to feel rewarding, but totally achievable for weekend practice. A joy to play and makes us sound great!
