Such Great Heights by Benjamin Gibbard String Quartet - Digital Sheet Music

SKU: A0.526274

Released as the lead single from The Postal Service's first studio album, "Such Great Heights" immediately became a hit and a staple of the burgeoning indie pop genre. It ultimately ended up ranking #27 on Rolling Stone's list of the 100 Best Songs Of The Decade, and has since been covered by a number of other bands and used many times in popular culture, including TV shows, movies, and commercials. And now you can add it to your gig books with this fun Cellobat arrangement for string quartet! This chart recreates the song's distinctly recognizable synth intro, fun upbeat groove, catchy melody, and lush harmonic layers -- you're sure to captivate your audience, whether or not they're familiar with the original. Rated intermediate; there's nothing particularly difficult in this chart except some syncopated rhythms, but keep in mind that it does go by pretty fast. This will definitely be learnable for students and sightreadable for professionals.
