Attack on Titan Suite – Cello + Guitar w. David Jay

Music from Attack on Titan / 進撃の巨人 on Cello + Guitar with @DavidJayTheSpaniard.

David and I have worked together a lot over the years, but back in 2020 he took a break from music to focus on university. A couple of years later, David introduced me to Attack on Titan and the series is how we ended up reconnecting. We were both so into the incredible music in the soundtrack, and we spent the last couple years thinking about how to put our own unique spin on it.

We ended up with a selection of 5 pieces that represent the gravity of Attack on Titan's story, and how it uses music to elevate iconic moments. Big thanks to David for bringing his signature style to transform these pieces, and for being so fully invested in every aspect of this project!

0:00 – Ashes on the Fire
3:04 – Bauklötze
6:14 – Vogel im Käfig
13:06 – Apple Seed
15:43 – Call of Silence

Everytime I watch a video, I am always in awe of your playing. Such beautiful tone! love the effort put into the visuals as well. I swear, you could play twinkle twinkle little star, and I'd watch it.

Bravo! Thank you very much for the great performance. And I didn’t realize Bauklotze can sound so medieval. What a treat to my ears 👍

That frikkin guitar solo on apple seed!!!

[marcf.h]

It's so impressive what an effect vibrato can make. Very very admirable. I was really very moved by it and was able to take a lot with me technically (on the cello). Thank you for sharing your art with us

[abienciso]

Hauntingly beautiful. 💜 Surely brings back memories of Cebu days when I used to watch Shingeki No Kyojin. I simply would love to hear you play Guren No Yumiya. ☺️💜

[joshn]

This is amazing Nicholas! Please do a part 2!! I suggest doing ThanksAT(TKT) from Season 3 part II. My favorite soundtrack from all of AOT. Much love ❤️

Such a beautiful arrangement. So tender and emotional, these man truly have a god given talent. Keep it up

[olyasavosina]

Unbelievable! It gives me such a motivation to keep learning cello!

[bogdanmelnychuk]

Wow, this is incredible. I cannot describe how good it felt to listen to familiar melodies in your astonishing arrangement. I didn't know my goosebumps had goosebumps 😂 Great work! Keep it up. I have a suggestion for you. How about covering Hollow knight? Would love too hear that in your execution

I can’t wait to watch all the way through this. AoT is awesome and has a fantastic soundtrack. Great work y’all!
