Schubert: Erlkönig (SAKURA Cello Quintet) 

The arrangment for cellos sounds so cool especially the main theme it sounds so strong on a cello wow

I wish the cello quartet and quintet format was more famous. It certainly has a whole lot of potential regarding range, dynamic and most of all harmonic "blending", so to speak.

One of the most underrated video in whole you tube !

If I heard this without seeing the video, I'd NEVER would have thought it would have been comprised of ALL cellos. The note range is insane

This is such a gorgeous arrangement! Definitely one of my favorite versions of Erlkonig!

Amazing. The different colors and phrasing are unbelievable.

And for those who would sing along: Wer reitet so spät durch Nacht und Wind? Es ist der Vater mit seinem Kind; Er hat den Knaben wohl in dem Arm, Er faßt ihn sicher, er hält ihn warm. "Mein Sohn, was birgst du so bang dein Gesicht?" - "Siehst, Vater, du den Erlkönig nicht? Den Erlenkönig mit Kron' und Schweif?" - "Mein Sohn, es ist ein Nebelstreif." "Du liebes Kind, komm, geh mit mir! Gar schöne Spiele spiel' ich mit dir; Manch' bunte Blumen sind an dem Strand, Meine Mutter hat manch gülden Gewand." - "Mein Vater, mein Vater, und hörest du nicht, Was Erlenkönig mir leise verspricht?" - "Sei ruhig, bleibe ruhig, mein Kind; In dürren Blättern säuselt der Wind." - "Willst, feiner Knabe, du mit mir gehn? Meine Töchter sollen dich warten schön; Meine Töchter führen den nächtlichen Reihn, Und wiegen und tanzen und singen dich ein." - "Mein Vater, mein Vater, und siehst du nicht dort Erlkönigs Töchter am düstern Ort?" - "Mein Sohn, mein Sohn, ich seh' es genau: Es scheinen die alten Weiden so grau. -" "Ich liebe dich, mich reizt deine schöne Gestalt; Und bist du nicht willig, so brauch' ich Gewalt." - "Mein Vater, mein Vater, jetzt faßt er mich an! Erlkönig hat mir ein Leids getan!" - Dem Vater grauset's; er reitet geschwind, Er hält in Armen das ächzende Kind, Erreicht den Hof mit Mühe und Not; In seinen Armen das Kind war tot.

This one of the most amazing quintet arrangements I've heard, especially of the famous and well-known Elrkonig by Schubert!! As a fellow cellist, you guys are absolutely amazing!! Thank you for sharing your marvelous talents!!

I am currently writing the rage of my character, and you can't imagine how this strong cello arrangement of Erlkönig is helping me.

WONDERFULL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

0:02 0:54 1:27 1:50 when you get in trouble and the youngest sibling starts snitching 2:01 2:02 2:20 THE HAIR 2:26 when your friend does something stupid "you did WHAT" 2:32 that look you give to your BFF when the teacher says to find a partner 3:00 THE HAIR AGAIN the many faces of a cellist everyone. as a cellist I can confirm I have made EVERY single one of these expressions. you're welcome.

Much darker than the solo violin (Ernst) version. I think I prefer this! I wish I could play the cello!

I always wanted to have the Erlkönig as a villain in my DnD campaign. Now I have a theme song haha ! Thank you. Wonderfull arrangement and interpretation.

凄い！素晴らしい！

Who gives a dislike is bad an idiot. The playing is amazing

Still not fast enough. The horse was still unable to outrun the elf king

Before you listen to this I would recommend u going to the original vocal price it’s so beautiful and elkönig means elf king I think it might help u understand once u go to the vocal piece

👍🏼

Wow I didn't know Glenn from The Walking Dead played cello

Love your music! Where can I buy sheet music? Do you plan on selling your cello arrangements? Please? 🤩

Lovely! Where can I find sheet music for your arrangements?

YOSEMITE SAM!

Hilary hahn can play it all by herself, does that mean she is secretly Ling Ling🤔🤨

Insufficient urgent tension. To me anyway.

what? do you realize these guys don't even have a thousand subs? smh

Who is here from 2SetViolin? Like if you are.

Yo classical fans, a question from someone who doesn't know shit: how is that possible that a cello reaches the notes of a violin? I mean, why bother using violin?

this is cheating
