[专辑介绍]：

 

2Cellos（写作 2CELLOS），是一个克罗埃西亚、斯洛维尼亚的大提琴双人组，由路卡·苏利克（Luka Sulic）和司杰潘·豪瑟（Stjepan Hauser）组成。2011年4月12日起和Sony Masterworks签约，两人是在YouTube上上传了一段他们的大提琴版麦可·杰克森的《Smooth Criminal》后被发掘的，他们已经发行了四张专辑，并演奏著名流行和摇滚歌曲以及古典和电影音乐。

 

2CELLOS return this autumn with an all-new album, Let There Be Cello, set for release October 19, 2018. A follow-up to the 2017 release of Score, Let There Be Cello finds Stjepan and Luka exploring a diverse catalogue with their signature boundary-breaking playing style.

 

“We’ve always said we want to break down pre-conceptions about the cello and the boundaries around musical genres. This album demonstrates that. We take inspiration from all sources, from pop smashes to timeless classical music, from classic rock through to our love of film music. This album has the lot – including some 2CELLOS originals. There are no rules, just let there be cello!”

 

Co-produced by Sulic and Hauser themselves as well as Filip Vidovic, Let There Be Cello is a showcase of 2CELLOS’ exceptional talent for reinventing the music of any genre. The collection includes their take on the latest pop hits, including Ed Sheeran’s “Perfect” and “Despacito” by Luis Fonsi, a fan-favorite rendition that has garnered over 30 million views on 2CELLOS’ YouTube alone. Known for bringing their explosive playing style to some of rock’s biggest anthems, 2CELLOS make no exception on Let There Be Cello, which features favorites “Eye of the Tiger” by Survivor and The White Stripes’ iconic “Seven Nation Army,” which the pair most recently performed on-field to open May’s UEFA Champions League final in Ukraine. Taking their classical instrumentation to new heights, 2CELLOS round out the newest album with everything from celebrated classics (“Imagine” by John Lennon, “Hallelujah” by Leonard Cohen) to never-before-heard original compositions (“Concept2,” “Cadenza”) for a listening experience unlike any other.

 

Giving fans a preview of what to expect from the group’s latest chapter, 2CELLOS today release a brand-new video for their rendition of “Vivaldi Storm.” Filmed in their native Croatia, the video finds Sulic and Hauser performing in the center of a rock quarry. With explosive lighting and dynamic camerawork, the visual perfectly mirrors the exhilarating drama and suspense of the Vivaldi composition, culminating in a climactic onslaught of rain as the performance comes to an end.

 

“We love the drama of Vivaldi. So we thought we’d bring a 2CELLOS storm to one of his best known pieces,” says 2CELLOS. “For this track we needed a suitably dramatic and beautiful location for the video – which we found in a quarry near Pula, Croatia. Summer is here but there is a storm coming!”
