Of course, if you want to play the arrangement with more than one person on a part, that's fine too. This means you could perform it as a string orchestra piece (like a string choir), with the cellos and basses doubling each other.
The reason for each part being written for all of the standard orchestral string instruments is to maximize how many different types of ensembles can perform it. This type of flexibility of ensemble is ideal for educators. It is great for teaching younger students basic chamber music skills, as well as giving students a chance to work on playing beyond 1st position.
This download includes all of the parts: Violin, Viola, and "Cello or Bass". Each part is written in score form. So, the Violin part includes Violin 1, 2, & 3. The Viola part includes Viola 1, 2 & 3. The "Cello or Bass" part includes Cello or Bass 1, 2, & 3.
