Mother Nature's Son by The Beatles String Orchestra - Digital Sheet Music
By John LennonAre you an Orchestra teacher looking for material for your Spring Concert? Are you a Beatles fan? Are you disappointed by the lack of variety in orchestral version of popular Beatles songs? I've been there before. Well if you're looking for a solution you're in the right place!"Mother Nature's Son" from The Beatles' White Album was a spectacular single on a spectacular album, with pastoral themes. Some say it's the closest The Beatles' ever got to a full-on folk song or hymn. This is why it was shocking to me that I hadn't seen a proper orchestral arrangement for this classic song.I tried my best at recreating the upbeat nature and background texture of the song while playing to the natural timbre of each string section as the melody (and counter-melody) bounces along to different sections. If you're looking for a piece that's fun and challenging for your advanced Middle School/High School orchestra students, or even your beginner college orchestra ensemble, then look no further!
