Pirates of the Caribbean - Cello Medley

Medley of themes from the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films, with my good friends Adam Caulfield and Katherine Pernal!
🎶 Sheet Music: (Trio) mnot.es/2LIYIWd, (Full) mnot.es/2METYBh
🎧 Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/4BSUFU...
I grew up with the Pirates films, and I have always loved how the memorable musical themes add such a great sense of adventure, darkness, heart and charm to the series (and, of course, solo cello). The soundtracks to the films each have their own unique flavour, and I wanted to showcase that and recap the series in this medley. Thank you for watching!
Fog Bound - 0:00
Davy Jones - 0:57
At Wit’s End - 2:04
Jack Sparrow - 3:30
Angelica - 4:20
My Name Is Barbossa - 5:47
Thank you so much to Adam and Katherine for being such gracious collaborators, and thank you Alex Klingle for mastering this track! All sounds in this video were made using a cello.

I love that the cello can be sensuous and sinister at the same time. So good.

[@quintonmiller6289]

The transition from jack sparrow to Angelica is very beautiful and remarkable

[@leoniegrosse9121]

woah, that is true beauty. You know, you were the one to inspire me to play cello, that was 2 years ago and I don't have time for lessons any more but I teach myself and I get better every day. I even started learning the violin. and every time I feel like I can't do it or that I am not motivated enough I come back to your videos (especially the starwars medley and the take me to church cover) and listen to it and it motivates me every time. thank you Nicholas Your skill level is amazing and I feel like you really love playing ♡

[@theresechristiansen9769]

Interesting that listening to good music inspires others. I notice that comments on channels like this are respectful and kind: pity 'normal' youtube isn't always like that! I play oboe and piano and found that hearing great artists speak about their work motivated me to keep trying; to keep aiming for the next summit of achievement. Don't ever give up -playing creates a bubble of peace in difficult times and the adrenaline just flows from the creation of good choons.

[@nicholasdyee]

This is a very humbling comment, thank you for sharing. I'm glad to hear that you've kept music a part of your life! Wishing you all the best ☺️

Captain Jack Sparrow for President! The soundtrack just reminds me of so many hilarious moments in the films... Dear cellists, thanks for sharing your marvellous work!

[@TopRacer-tx5cd]

All the dislikes are jealous violins. Cello is the most beatifull instrument. I’m so blessed i can play this divine instrument! 🙏

900000 subs and 1 like after 3 years 😂😂😂

[@WednesdayOrFriday]

How is it fair that a single instrument should have such a vast variety of expressive and emotional range. Other instruments will get jealous. I mean to say I love this. It is otherworldly.

[@nicholasdyee]

Very kind of you, thanks so much for listening!

[@livthemenace]

This is why I'm so happy to be a cellist. Cellos are actually the most beautiful and best instrument

[@SlashRfnR]

the musical arrangement is so beautiful and the parts are brought together so seamless, it feels like it's only one theme from start to end.

[@EmberCade]

Ending it with such a beautiful piece from the latest movie was a good call! ❤️

[@animeheartofpassion]

I can't thank you enough for not including the main theme from He's a Pirate. I hear everywhere it was getting on my nerves despite being an epic piece of music. I loved your own choice of tracks, At Wit's End is my favourite, Angelica was done brilliantly as well.

[@jackdonohue7893]

Haruka Yume you’re the only other person I’ve heard that thinks the same as me!

[@jhuang523]

my mans on the right going nuts w that vibrato love it omg

[@esther1765]

you know you're officially a fan when you hit the like button before watching the video and then after watching, go back to make sure i liked it again

[@axdonat]

Wow this is wonderful and it hit me deep inside. I played violin for 8 years and was in a band with a bunch of cellos and violins and we played a lot of pirates of the caribbean, so this is super nostalgic for me, but also bittersweet, I had to stop playing violin because i couldn't practice because of my rapidly worsening mental health. So this reminds me of all of the times I disappointed my teachers and got yelled at at practice because I kept messing up. But it also reminds me of the best feeling, the one you get when 20 people around you are playing perfect and loud together and you just feel the music in your chest and can't help but smile. Thank you for reminding me of those fond memories.

[@nicholasdyee]

Awe thanks so much for sharing! This music and even this video are really nostalgic for me now as well, nothing better than making some fun music with friends. Wishing you all the best 💛

[@myytacc9851]

YESSSSSS ANOTHER VID. :') it makes me want to play again. Your videos inspire people, keep it up!

[@mriaschug5432]

Unbelievable... I got them shiver me timbers... that beginning song tingles...

[@ellaboehme6748]

I loved your Studio Ghibli, Stranger Things, and Star Wars! You are an amazing and inspiring artist

also, this makes me wanna go binge watch potc

There's no other way to describe this: Simply Amazing.

Pirates of the Caribbean was my childhood and you guys brought me back to memory lane. Awesome job! It was beautiful to listen to this cello medley! ❤️

[@davisonkrajcik3825]

This absolutely rocks! These guys deserve more than 103K subs!

[@fudgeymoss]

I love that their cellos are all different colours, such a beautiful instrument

[@shaym4306]

I’m so overwhelmed by this. I nearly teared up at that last minute.. such intense beauty. They really do mean it when they say music touches the soul. Thank you SO much for this incredible piece 🌹

[@elfberry]

I don't remember the last time I clicked on a video so fast. I still think your Star Wars video is your best, but this is pretty dang close. Good job to you and your friends! Cello is the best instrument, hands down.

[@amihere383]

I so agree with all you said!

[@charmingsonata5527]

I love this. I especially love that each musician was featured with the melody at some point. Immediate subscribe.

[@cherry7590]

Cello is one of my favourite instruments. It can catch so much feelings and can be played in so much varieties.

[@submega2216]

This song hits all the right frequencies. What a perfect song for a cello trio. Excellent work and please play more music in this range.

[@irgendwer348]

You took wonderful music and made it even better! It's unbelievable what happened here- I cant deside if I wanna cry or laugh or doing both at the same time because this really touches me deeply. You arranged it so well and all three of you played it incredibly: it's a true piece of art. I love EVERYTHING of it, but when " Angelica" fades into "my name is Barbossa" I always get goosbumps, every single time I listen to it- and I have been coming back to watch this video for years now...

[@jiniretjessy6248]

I loved it, they are incredible!!

[@laurathg97]

When each of the songs came to their extasis, I got chills. I LOVE THIS SO FRIGGIN MUCH

[@rosie4582]

I died from joy as I just saw that I can buy this wonderful arrangement. This is one of the wonderfulest thing that I've ever listened to. I was thinking of giving up on Cello. Two years of practicing but once again, but teacher left and I can't find a new one where I live. I don't want to do this alone and do bad things and gaining bad habits. I am learning violin and piano too and I am afraid I can't get enough time to practice all of these. But listening to this, there is no way I could bring my cello back. Thank you.

[@Sarahlong-jz1fy]

Please do the Harry Potter theme song. Like if you agree

[@julie7592]

Beautiful! I would love to learn how to play the cello one day! Is it me or do some parts of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" soundtrack remind you of the "Last of the Mohicans" soundtrack?

[@theresechristiansen9769]

Absolutely! W3ll spotted! I used to obsessively listen to the Last of the Mohicans -first the film/dialogue and then the score. But Pirates came at a time when social media was just out of sight but around the corner.

[@swatir.567]

Julie R. Some parts of this seemed to be from the movie Brave heart.

[@nandamurali7791]

No "He's a Pirate"?! It was still AMAZING, keep it up 👍 EDIT: Search up "He's a Pirate" those of you that think 3:30 is it

[@CelloMasterNE]

3:30

[@nandamurali7791]

Daboss 21 that's not he's a pirate, search it up

[@anniefaucher8143]

6:50 is he’s a pirate

[@ethans8296]

Annie Faucher that’s not he’s a pirate

[@morganaverena]

He's a pirate is not in this video :) and thats okay.. i'm a huge pirates of the caribbean fan and i understand that wherever you look abot potc, there's He's a pirate, so they tried to change the usual.
