The Weeknd - Cello Medley

Cello medley of music by The Weeknd, from 2011 - 2020.
🎶 Sheet Music: (Solo) www.musicnotes.com/l/Cktmm
🎧 Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/7mjAHe...
I was in high school when The Weeknd’s first EPs were released, and I remember being immediately impacted by his debut single. The contrast between his smooth tone and dark, moody production and melodies is something that I’ve often tried to explore using the cello. Over the years, I’ve been inspired not only by the pureness and honesty of his vocal style but also by his ability to tell a story with each release that is both fresh and familiar.
With ‘After Hours’ coming out this year and being such a culmination of his music so far, I wanted to arrange this medley to reflect on the music that I’ve grown with and capture its evolution up to this point.

Thanks so much for coming back! 😀

Nicholas Yee of course man! Keep up the great work.

[@ziona587]

That's crazy that you played most of the songs on one string. Amazing work.

[@bettyreads222]

gosh, faith is stunning in all cello; what a beautiful medley!

[@nicholasdyee]

Thanks so much! That outro from Faith is my favourite part of the new album

[@MercyMburuNyakio]

There's something very Kanye West-esque about your arrangements. When you played Call Out My Name, I started singing Streetlights in anticipation. I hopped in the cab and I paid my dues...

[@nicholasdyee]

Really appreciate that, Kanye's string arrangements are a big inspiration! I do have a cover of Street Lights in my Kanye medley haha
