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!)

[@stephenlaird2370]

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.

Justin, this is no joke: 3 times the song has hit the charts 1 initial release 2 Soundtrack to Waynes World 3 the movie. No other song has done that. Also, cover bands doing this song and others play a note down, their singers can't match the original and last but not least the song itself. It's actually a composition with 5 verses and no chorus. Each verse carries it's own genre, 1st verse Acapella 2nd Ballad 3rd Opera 4th Rock 5th Coda. Can you think of any other song that carries those kinds of credentials?? Me neither. You're welcome. Move aside stairway to heaven, there's a new and old one taking your place. After all, the show must go on...

I remember my aunt telling me of an amazing song that she had heard on the radio. It turned out to be Bohemian Rhapsody, and she loved it, despite disliking modern music. It took a long time to convince her that it was not from an opera. This is the beauty of this piece of music. It is timeless. One commentator wrote it's the greatest piece ever written. Well it is certainly there amongst the greats, and will probably be astonishing people for centuries to come with both it's freshness and its timeless appeal.

I have fallen in love with this composition. It’s incredible both as rock performance, with all its technology, and as a classical cover. This one both echoes its vocal elements while also opening up its musical complexities. Gonna add it to a BR playlist.

[@fromchomleystreet]

This is easily the best Queen cover I’ve heard. I just came back to this after listening to the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra botch it (it’s here on KZbin). So many orchestrators seem to iron all the syncopation and feel out of melodies when they adapt pop and rock for classical instruments. I think it makes a difference when the arranger and the musicians clearly know and like the original song, and understand how it should feel, as opposed to just reading dots on a page.

As a hardcore Queen fan that hates covers with a vengeance (I even consider today's Queen a glorified tribute band) I can say that this is an amazing performance, you really captured the soul of the song and made it into a truly beautiful performance. Well done..

[@perfectlypurepinkpompompan3467]

Well, this is by far the most "coverable" Queen song: you can play it any way you want, on any set of instruments using almost any words.... and it ALWAYS sounds great (well, almost, lol). It is in the realm of Pure Music - like Bach for example: you can transcribe his music onto anything even rubber chickens and it sounds wonderful.

Great!! Now a bit of advice from a someone with a quite wide taste on music: Try not being that hardcore, that bias keeps you from enjoying a lot of good music. Even in whole different styles. Cheers!

that's pretty cringe be more open-minded

[@zaker721]

OH GOD!!! This is glorious. Oh Freddie, I hope you got to hear this, wherever you are. You music is still awe inspiring.

[@stargasm1000]

This is absolutely incredidble!! I can almost hear Freddie Mercury singing right through this music

[@Ivan-ir3tq]

I've been listening to this song for more than 40 years. It's like it's printed in my ears by now. But what you did here is absolutely wonderful. I heard Freddy singing when you were playing. It was perfect! Congratulations to the six of you for bringing classical instruments out of the classical world with such elegance, talent and joyfulness.

I am sure Freddie Mercury is looking down from heaven with a big smile on his face and a thumbs up. Another grear piece!!❤️

@@kendrawagner9609 I fully agree that God loves everyone. But does it mean everyone will go to heaven despite choices they made? If so than what is the difference between good n bed? Why struggle n chose good which is more difficult? Your optics leads to relativism n denying dichotomy good-bad. I prefer to assume that I should avoid sins. Just in case my moral choices matter at the end of times

This arrangement is simply exquisite! This melody was MADE for the cello.
