"Bohemian Rhapsody" Performed by Twelve Cellos

Regular Concert to Celebrate the Release of Cellista Cello Ensemble's New Album

Stage One, the concert planning company, announced on August 28 that the Cellista Cello Ensemble will hold its regular concert "CINEMA" at the Seoul Arts Center Concert Hall at 5:00 p.m. on September 7 to commemorate the release of their second album.

The ensemble will perform film music featured on their soon-to-be-released album "CINEMA," arranged for twelve cellos. The program includes "Bohemian Rhapsody," composed by Freddie Mercury, as well as Queen's signature songs "Love of My Life" and "We Are the Champions." The concert will also feature "When I Dream" from the film "Shiri" and "The James Bond Theme" from the "007" series.

Composer An Sungmin arranged the pieces, reinterpreting them as new music that preserves the narrative and emotional lines of the films while highlighting the unique timbre and ensemble of the cello.

The Cellista Cello Ensemble was founded in 2013 by cellists who are active in the classical music scene both in Korea and abroad. With its distinctive twelve-cello formation, the group performs a wide range of genres, including classical music, opera arias, popular music, and original compositions.

In 2023, to mark their 10th anniversary, they released their first album "CELLISTA," and are now preparing to release their second album.
