This is the sixth volume in a series of cello duets published by Schott, covering a diverse range of pop music and featuring online backing-tracks. The arrangements, by Michael Zlanabitnig (a graduate of Popakademie Mannheim), come with two different versions of the audio: one with two cellists playing along with the synthesised backing, and the other offering just the backing, so that players can play along. This allows the cellist to learn the pieces by ear, if preferred, rather than being reliant on the rhythmic detail captured in a score. When written out, pop music sometimes looks fussy and difficult, and the ‘feel’ can be lost.
