The Four Seasons, a series of four violin concerti, is his best-known work and a highly popular Baroque piece. Very good indeed.Antonio Lucio Vivaldi (Maâ July 28, 1741), nicknamed il Prete Rosso ('The Red Priest'), was a Venetian priest and Baroque music composer, as well as a famous virtuoso violinist he was born and raised in the Republic of Venice.

The head banging and raw energy remains, but there's not a rock riff in sight. It's nice to know your duo can continue, albeit with a bit more intimacy.Īnd to prove they've got classical street-cred, here they are playing a Baroque concerto. It's sad, and you might need melancholic Coldplay.

We're concerned that there looks to be something very wrong with Mr Vai's lute.īecause sometimes you lose a cello. Highway to Hell is by AC/DC (which we assume is a collaboration between Aaron Copland and Domenico Cimarosa), and the two cellists are joined in this video by Steve Vai. We'll get back to the two cellists together shortly, but this solo performance from Luka Sulic of Debussy's Clair de Lune is incredibly beautiful, and we thought you'd like it. Let's hope they made a few quid, because it seems many bows died in the process. It's some extravagant floppy-haired busking for their take on Guns n' Roses Welcome To The Jungle. We always knew the Elgar Concerto was missing something. Complete with red wine and the trademark Jacko 'Ow'. Michael Jackson's great song finds a very natural home in this face-to-face cello duel. It's enough to make you wonder if this excellent synth riff was originally written for cello. oh, and some bow hair-raising guitar solos scraped out on cello strings. There's bombs falling, guns firing, buildings tumbling to the ground.

Michael Jackson's rollicking number gets a surprisingly serious and powerful retelling here - surely this has to be 2CELLOS' biggest video budget yet.
