Detailed Description
SKU: A0.1574412
By ABBA. By Benny Andersson, Bjorn Ulvaeus, and Stig Anderson. Arranged by Des McNutty. This edition: pdf. Broadway, Musical/Show, Pop. 15 pages. Des Press #1146176. Published by Des Press (A0.1574412).
Mamma Mia was released by ABBA in September 1975 and is the opening track on their eponymous third album (ABBA). An exclamation mark distinguishes the title of this hit song from that of the otherwise eponymous Broadway-jukebox show and Hollywood-jukebox Musical: the movie; Mamma Mia!
Mamma Mia was ABBA's first number one in the UK since Waterloo in 1974.
Mamma Mia features a xylophone and an oboe alongside the usual line-up of instruments. Other well known tracks with oboe include I Got You Babe (1965) by Sonny & Cher and Back for Good (1995), by boyband Take That.
This arrangement for string quartet is a relatively straight-forward idiomatic transcription in the same tonality as the original recording, so you could even play along with it for fun.
The level is intermediate; quickly rehearsed by professional quartets and an accessible challenge for experienced students.
