Hey guys! We've been wanting to cover this one for ages and finally did it. WE LOVE THIS SONG! 😍 Of course nothing can ever come close to Queen's original, but it's amazing how well the song works as an instrumental. We were so happy to work with our friends from the Dover Quartet again on this one...they are so much fun and such incredible players. On another note, we wanted to thank all of you for helping us hit 400, 000 subscribers a few days ago! You are the BEST. ❤️ (Also, thank you for all the lovely well wishes for our upcoming baby...we're getting pretty excited!)

I think this is one of the reasons Bohemian Rhapsody is one of the most iconic songs because it can be played in many different ways and it sounds awesome.

When i was about 6 years old I asked my dad innocently 'What's the most beautiful song in the world' and he had told me Bohemian Rhapsody. As a 25 year old now I still think he was right to this very day.

Bohemian rhapsody isn’t just a song it’s an experience

I SWEAR TO GOD THAT I CAN HEAR THE CELLO SINGING THE LYRICS

Whoever says classic and rock can't go together is wrong. Classic and rock are great alone, but together they're the best sound you'll ever hear on earth

I was going to say "no words"', but I realize that I actually have many words to say about what you've done here. Having first heard this song when it was released in 1975, we just knew that this composition was destined for greatness. I want to say that Freddie Mercury composed this as a satire of classical opera, but I must say that it's very essence is, in fact, the dynamics and passion of the operatic genre. And we all know that Freddie had a passion for the dramatic. That is why this song has endured as one of the great anthems in the annals of rock history. A little bird told me that this was a major achievement for Brooklyn Duo, together with Dover, one of the world's great young String Quartets. Yet I was still unprepared for what I heard this morning. This arrangement was absolutely perfect and captured, first, the true essence of this song. But what was truly impressive were the musical nuances of every section by every instrument from 6 classical musicians who, individually, are at the top of their game, yet collectively, as an ensemble, are absolutely exquisite in execution. I don't know of anyone who has achieved more in the category of classical-rock crossover than you. Congratulations on such an achievement, and thanks for all that you do.

At 78. I am just learning to play the cello. Love the arrangement and the fingering is fantasic

[michellegoldstein]

This brought me to tears. Freddie would be proud. Bravo.

I like how one of them breathes before every phrase as if they're singing it. I don't know why exactly but that makes it 10 times better. I think it provides energy and livelihood

[senhordoutorprofessormestr]

If I hadn't known the original music, I might have thought that this is a classical and erudite symphony. PERFECT

[dhimasfahri]

Can we give appreciate to the piano mom, it's perfect

[markrymanowski]

The Cellist in the center is perfect.
Best cover of Bohemian Rhapsody ever.

Searched all bohemian rhapsody versions after watching the movie. This is the best after the original version.
