Awesome Cello

Rock star cellists Luka Šulić and Stjepan Hauser connect with rock star pianist Lang Lang for an epic cover of Paul McCartney & Wings’ awesome James Bond theme, conjuring images of flaming skulls in the deepest recesses of our minds.

Luka Sulic and Stjepan Hauser show off their impeccable cello skills in this concert recorded at last summer’s Exit Festival. The show starts off quietly enough but escalates at 6:26 and doesn’t let go. Put your headphones on and enjoy.

Luka Sulic and Stjepan Hauser of 2CELLOS perform a head-banging medley which combines The William Tell Overture with Iron Maiden’s The Trooper. We’re surprised their bows have any hairs left on them by the time it’s over.

If you haven’t heard Animals as Leaders, you’re missing out on some seriously face-melting shreds. The ridiculous technicality of a song like Cafo is what makes Chino M’s cello cover so awesome.

There’s something strangely compelling about the way that the classic cello of Yo-Yo Ma perfectly complements the smooth moves of Los Angeles based dancer Charles “Lil Buck” Riley.

Not into classical music? Well once you hear the Vitamin String Quartet kicking out their rendition of Daft Punk’s Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger, you just might be. More cool string covers here.

If we could bottle and sell just a tiny amount of the passion that Luka Šulić and Stjepan Hauser have playing their cellos in this gorgeous looking and sounding video, we’d surely be rich by now. Bravo!
