The string quartet is still the most popular combination for weddings and other events, but the string trio is gaining popularity. So similar to a quartet, yet the trio has its own unique energy. We got the chance this month to transform three of our string quartet arrangements into trio form: “Set Fire to the Rain” by Adele, “Just the Way You Are” by Bruno Mars, and “Marry Me” by Train. And for each of these songs, we have a violin, viola, cello version and a 2-violin + cello version.

We’ve been looking forward to arranging some music by Adele, and we finally got our chance this week with a request for the sultry “Set Fire to the Rain” for string quartet. This is a song that’s perfect for bringing out the rich, smooth tones of string instruments and definitely won’t be the last Adele song we arrange.

The week ended with a change of pace from Adele’s ballad as we completed a string quartet arrangement of alt rock/pop punk “Mr. Brightside” by The Killers. 

We’re busy bees at Popped String, but we are ready for your requests at any time. Email us today!
