Cellos on the Roof Top For Cello Ensemble - Katie O'Hara LaBrie
Cellos on the Rooftop for Cello Ensemble
Get ready to rock the holidays with Cellos on the Rooftop! Originally written for string orchestra, this version consists of 5 cello parts, allowing the cello section to truly take center stage. This piece was inspired by a vibrant young student with a clear zest for life and passion for cello, and written by composer Katie O’Hara LaBrie (who happens to be a cellist as well)! The jazzy bass line, along with lots of slurring from F natural to F sharp add to the bluesy rock vibe. It’s Up on the Housetop like you’ve never heard before!
