By Stephen Schwartz. Arranged by Sarah Cellobat Chaffee. Score,Set of Parts. 18 pages. Published by Sarah Chaffee (H0.434171-SC001309046).

"The Baker's Wife" isn't one of Stephen Schwartz's most well-known musicals, especially compared to smash hits like "Wicked" and "Godspell," but it has still established a cult following - mainly for its incredible songwriting! "Serenade" is full of soaring melodies, gorgeous and sometimes unexpected harmonies, and lush countermelodic layers, all set against a subtle but driving background of guitar arpeggios. I created this arrangement for five cellos after playing in the pit orchestra for a production of the show - even after the curtain, I couldn't get this song out of my head. Rated advanced for some treble clef and stuff very high up on the fingerboard every once in a while.

Why choose Cellobat Charts arrangements? For any musician who knows what they're doing, the answer is easy: just listen to them. Every freelance musician has thrown hard-earned money away on questionable, error-filled charts by unknown arrangers from weird corners of the Internet. But watch out -- inferior arrangements not only make gigs less enjoyable to play, but they also make your group sound bad to your client and audience, no matter how great your players really are. That's why Cellobat Charts is here: to provide students and working string players alike with high-quality versions of highly requested music. My arrangements are guaranteed to be energetic, fun to play, and enjoyable to listen to, whether or not you're familiar with the original songs. Hear the difference for yourself! Full videos of many Cellobat Charts arrangements are available on YouTube so you know exactly what you're getting.
