[@joaomiranda5350]

When Steven Spielberg first showed John Williams a cut of the film, Williams was so moved he had to take a walk outside for several minutes to collect himself. Upon his return, Williams told Spielberg he deserved a better composer. Spielberg replied, "I know, but they're all dead."

[@Biglover29]

Wow, really?!

[@SmellsLikePurple]

I mean it was a good movie but that sounds a bit extreme

[@kevinbrown4073]

one could argue it is the best movie ever certainly top 5

[@MisterFourby]

Kinda harsh for Williams to be answered that way.

[@pronkt]

it was a joke they were friends

[@denizbicer5056]

What a great talent she has. She made the cello almost cry.

[@rosemariemellado4821]

deniz bicer jiiikkmmm..q34u

[@thehouseofronin9209]

She almost made me cry she's so good

[@angeltitis8723]

My thoughts exactly

[@markmartel1738]

“Almost”?

[@claramusician]

Almost as perfect as Yitzack Perlman... 😌

[@johngardner1898]

I like her timing which is slower than most of the master violinists. The cello expresses this magnificent music so beautifully. Her performance is also a powerful visual statement. Ms. Guo plays to a dark, empty room with frames on the wall, some also empty, the video ending with that unforgettable, utterly heartbreaking image of the little girl in the red coat.

[@tinaguo]

+John Gardner Thank you!

[@johngardner1898]

+Tina Guo This performance, and your kindness to this fan, are both remarkable.

[@mohamedumar3082]

+Benjamin Crawford this comment about speaking in third person makes me want to speak in third person.....

[@JohnDoe-qq8ws]

Don’t forget the red dress.

[@polenc7167]

Such amazing nuance and sensitivity! When I hear you perform it is like hearing the truth for the first time in my life.

[@PeterHollens]

So... this was amazing. I'm a fan!

[@Dany-fn2kn]

Ooohhh My God!!!!!! so beautiful....

[@tinaguo]

Thank you :)

[@monicacruz1337]

[@monicacruz1337]

Yo también

[@tinaguo]

***** Thank you! It's always lots of fun making music with Austin! He's awesome :)

[@josemercado5297]

Usually the renditions of this piece are a bit rushed, but yours was both the perfect tempo and beautifully passionate. I consider you an inspiration to young cellists like myself. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world.

[@huahaiyang8311]

Brought tears to my eyes.

[@tinaguo]

Thank you Huahai

[@nadirkemal]

Tina Guo do you enjoy making us cry!? 🐸

[@lindabredow8804]

Tina is a wonderful cello player. She plays with so much emotion. She feels the music in her soul. She is my favorite female cello player. She is beautiful too.

[@tidela4714]

She’s making the cello sound like it’s crying. It’s beautiful and perfect.

[@rickandrew6397]

It is, from her skill to our ears and hearts 🎻✌️

[@robertoslepcik2596]

I'm a tough guy but your version of Schindler's List has touched my soul. You're amazing

[@tinaguo]

Roberto Slepcik aw thanks so much ❤️

[@robertoslepcik2596]

Tina Guo no thanks hunny :*

[@robloxrubis6007]

Roberto Slepcik 👍❤

[@SourLimez]

its perfect

[@anonymoose116]

I'm a pretty tough gal. I don't cry easily, I'm don't have a soft touch....but the scene in the movie where he lamented all the things he bought, all the things he had that he could have used the money instead to save more - my God I sobbed. How people today can act like the holocaust wasn't a problem, didn't happen, etc is horrific.

[@stevenbastien9028]

This is one of the most beautiful and expressive renditions of this piece I've heard. The cello works so well, but the player's skill and heart is what makes it extra special.

[@Thearbiter96]

Tina gorgeously made the cello weep to the Heavens. She gave the cello a heart and I felt it emote. Very well done. One of the top 3 covers of this piece I’ve heard. This is why we love Tina Guo.

[@josephinelee7230]

The best Schindler's list on cello I've ever heard!

[@ahmedsalama-vv2ki]

Josephine Lee it's an amazing version, but I recommend you to listen to Luka Sulic's.

[@NamPortland]

Hauntingly beautiful, like the sounds of weeping, sobbing & crying angels were ever slowly, slowly, slowly absorbing, occupying & piercing your soul...

[@NorthForkFisherman]

It's amazing how you can take something that is so sad, and yet turn it into something of such resounding beauty. This is why I'm a fan.

[@furiscafynn6275]

I keep coming back here... I love this version. It's just that bit slower, perfect for the deep richness of the cello. Perfection

[@xi6907]

This cover is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. Wow...

[@TheDarkestSmurf]

I absolutely love that you let us see how much you feel what you are playing, and I respect any artist who tackles this horrible subject through their form of artistic expression. My grandmother, the last of my family who survived the Nazis, passed away yesterday at the age of 87. It didn't feel quite real to me, until now. With the first time you wear that pained expression on your face the dam broke. I haven't stopped crying for half an hour. Despite that, you are brilliant. Keep touching people's hearts.

[@aru120]

I watched the movie when I was still a kid, and instantly became one of my favorites. Many years after, before I decided to play the cello, I heard the theme song, but didn't realized it was from that movie, and the moment I heard it, I had a strange feeling because it was so familiar, yet unknown. Later, I decided to play the cello, and some time after, I found out that the music I heard was from one of my favorite movies. It's awesome to see that I subconsciously chose the cello as my favorite instrument that first time I saw the movie, but many years later was the time for me to pick it up and start learning. Thx Tina Guo for, as usual, a wonderful rendition.

[@fullmetalpapercut]

I Love the Song.......But with Cello......WOW Amazing, beautiful, incredible, extraordinary BRAVO!

[@tinaguo]

Adrian Chavaro Mejia Thank you!

[@MrDank-fv8ww]

Listen to the bass version equally as good

[@whiteglovesmusikant6204]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZK5aHutjKmsfdk Schindler's list Theme, My version, Classic

[@helldvl]

This has got to be one of the most moving pieces ever... This cello, and the composition is just breathtaking..

[@krystalavi8506]

My grandmother/best friend passed away a week ago today, she survived the holocaust because Sultan/King Mohammad V (rest his soul)of Morocco did not let the Germans take the Jews from Morocco. I wish I found this sooner so I could have played it for my grandmother. This brought tears to my eyes. Thank you

[@dulceguerra2326]

😭😭😭

[@shadyjew2913]

May his soul Rest In Peace 😢😢

[@dish_care]

Be Strong Dear!! .... Sister

[@martinblack781]

Your Grandmother watches over you

[@valtis23]

i had a great aunt who survived Auschwitz only to die when i was i believe 5 or 6 and when i hear this music and i think of all the lives cut short by the worst of human kind. #Tinagao you made the saddest song ive ever heard even more powerful.

[@martinblack781]

Every note is a 100 lives. So much feeling in her playing. I'm in tears.

[@dheyes803]

Tina, there is sooooo much depth of emotion in this video. I felt every note and your performance sent chills down my spine. Thank you so much for all of your videos.

[@studentemariateresacosta2008]

[@mnshaolink]

this performance touched mi heart! it made me cry. thanks that tremendous amount of emotions! you're a great musician because you transmit the feelings. Greetings form this Argentine.

[@evakonen9975]

I agree 100%... I became a great fan of classic film music and she caused it. Thank you for showing me how magnificent this kind of musik is, Tina. ♥

[@tinaguo]

Thank you so much!

[@rowanwatkins1580]

Probably the best interpretation I've ever heard of the song. Most people play it too fast or too slow, but this was perfect!

[@Kaplan20]

This rendition moved me to tears its captured all the pain and suffering such an expressive score.

[@PhilippKleinMusic]

Beautiful version! And I really like the red dress as a reference to the movie :)

[@leonhost]

Tina, this version has something different from the other versions of this song, you. You add more beauty, more sensitivity, more feelings, literally, you make the cello cry and lament. Thank you for so much beauty, it is truly like everything you do, something heavenly.

[@GrimSlytherin]

The passion for her music can be seen as she plays. Wonderful, absolutely wonderful.

[@GoddessOfThree]

This is the most emotional version of this song I have heard yet, and 9 years later I still literally cannot listen to it without choking and tearing up at least a little bit. Actively doing so right now lmao.

[@TheArrycool]

Literally brought tears..Thank you for uploading.

[@gobills7163]

Back in fall 24’ to hear this masterpiece again and remember i’m a living soul. I love you fellow humans

[@MitabShrestha]

schindler's list is so touching.. one of my fav music.thanks for playing

[@dwightalfred]

Absolutely stunning Miss Guo. The cello is my favorite instrument of the violin family and you just proved why.

[@phoenix3d308]

The thing I love most about your music can't be explained in just one word but the one I can think of best is EXPRESSION! Not only are you an outstanding cellist and vocalist, but the emotion and power you hold over your playing is nothing short of magical! This ability you have makes you one of the best cellists in history, and most likely the best of our time! Thank you so much for sharing your talent with the world! Keep playing! Your gift is to wonderful to keep to yourself.

[@cobalt._.27]

Phoenix3D o u t s t a n d i n g ?

[@PeterJahans]

A beautiful performance, and at the end, when the image of the girl in red appeared, the tears flowed.

[@GamertagO1]

...OMFG...my favorite movie theme ever on my favorite instrument. I play no musical instrument, but I think it's safe to assume some of those notes, especially that one really high one at the end is a challenge to nail. I had chills through most of that, it sounded perfect but altered just enough to set itself apart from Itzhak Perlman's beautiful rendition. Amazing.

[@tinaguo]

Perlman's original version is gorgeous! I played around with different tempos but in the end, playing it slowly and fully drawing out the emotion from each phrase felt most natural for my own interpretation 😄 thank you!

[@GamertagO1]

Tina Guo It was really a beautiful rendition, and you're so very welcome! Thank you for sharing your amazing gift with all of us. :)

[@aadeshdeshmukh210]

I watch this video everyday. I will keep watching it everyday. I have just fallen in love with the bond between you and your cello. May this bond get stronger and stronger.

[@rennyurdaneta3918]

This song is simply perfect! The feelings It covers are limitless! This performance is flawless and full of passion! Priceless! An amazing and timeless musical Jewel!

[@pedroalbicastrense353]

Always this thème make me cry , incredible interprétation .

[@jaidonsieh8506]

Oh where do I even start? Tina you are by far one of the greatest cellist's I've seen on KZbin. This is my favorite instrument and just watching your videos makes me sit right back down to play my cello. I've rushed to class and thrown your videos on the projector for everyone to see just because I can't be the only one in my school to see it (only music geek in small town). I can listen to your classical covers for hours. And your style with metal is brutal and badass on so many levels. Tina you are badass and an amazing cellist. PLEASE continue posting, I love it all!!!

[@vesislavaofficial]

you are such a cello queen Tina

[@pianoelly6733]

you can find a couple of covers from schindlers list but actually tina's version is the only one that sounds unique. thank you, Tina! :-)

[@ZekeFinn]

No word...just talented, just beautiful and sad...thanx for this moment, and many moments @Tina Guo. Youre the best.

[@Mauronator]

One of the best themes in the world! WOW what a fantastic perfomance!

[@Peergint67]

Tina, I first saw you on Hans Zimmer live in Prague and I was so impressed. I've never seen anyone play cello like you and I think you bring so much more to it. Wonderful stuff.

[@vicky6184]

I didn't know how to start the new chapter to my fanfic but now I just got an.stroke of inspiration. .. Wow! So thanks!! That was amazing!!

[@brunosampaio7239]

That´s the saddest theme of all time. Played beautifully (as always) by Tina Guo. I saw her playing for the first time in a live performance here in Brasil, just a few meters away from me and have been a fan since then. She´s such a great musician!

[@孙悟穷]

Main Theme from Godfather Please!!

[@Outland9000]

Or Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana.

[@MarcShake]

In my humble opinion one of the saddest and most beautiful songs ever written. I never thought about an interpretation on a cello. Thank you for showing this to me, youtube algorithm.

[@tigerfishgirl]

Exquisite playing, both from you and your invisible pianist ;)

[@fralymaurin189]

I come back to hear this piece over and over again. Years passed and here I am.

[@Ironclad6661]

Tina I've been following you for around five years now and I can't believe how incredibly talented you are. You have a fan for life. Love your work and how amazingly diverse it is.

[@tinaguo]

+Greg Michaels Thank you Greg!

[@TeamRiverbank]

This is astonishing. I'm utterly floored by how perfect this performance is

[@rangerslayer2260]

What a beautiful piece from a good film! Yeah, I listened to the version with the violin, but listening to this, the cello has that little more edge to hit the somber, if not, depressing mood of the composition by John Williams. Good job, even if this is 2 years old.

[@rushellnex2863]

I love the passion with Which you touch the violoncello, you get every melody overflow caresses the soul.

[@christopherpetit3985]

juste magnifique en vous écoutant on voyage j'ai des frison partout superbe interprétation et magnifique créature.

[@KristaporAttarian.Composer]

This is probably the most Inspiring performance of John William's Schindler List I have ever heard !!Tina Guo is a phenomenal Cellist !!

If anyone makes a list of the top10 sad songs, this one has to be on it.

You broke my heart. Thank you. This music and this movie are my favorite. Redemption is a beautiful thing.

[@kristafoley]

Amazing! You play with such real emotion. The cello is my favorite out of the strings and you play it beautifully. A lovely song.

[@basstheory9384]

Cheers from a bassist. One said (in the comment section of a video of an orchestra playing this song) that emotion is a universal language. I say that music that evokes emotion is an universal language.

I've watched several versions of the piece before, but truly, your version here is so tear-jerking, I watched it hundreds of times but still found my throat ache and eyes melt to tears. what it is I don't know actually, but your feeling is so real. I felt like being taken into a world full of emotions

[@christophebideaux1404]

Sorry but there is nothing tremendous about those murderous camps or the monsters who ran them. But I agree with you that Tina touches the heart, a sign of not just a great musician but a great human being.

[@MadMax75th]

not sure how much is due to recalling the movie but your performance made me emotional and brought a tightness in my throat. Such a beautiful performance, you can see her heartfelt connection as she plays this song. Thank You.

PLEASE OH PLEASE!!!!! PLEASE arrange this into sheet music!! I will pay what ever you make it worth

[@tinaguo]

Ricky3D Haha hi Ricky! The sheet music should be available online, I found mine online. Search "Schindler's List Cello",

[@eschelar]

Just listened to another version by another cellist. From the first note, I got goosebumps, but it was too fast. Listening to Tina, from the first note, my lungs stopped working as my breath was taken away. From the third note, my eyes were moist and from then on, I was lost in the music. 5 minutes to listen to the piece. 10 minutes to recompose myself. Absolute perfection.

[@PianoHaiku]

Goosebumps.

[@GamertagO1]

Same here my friend.

[@pedro.camacho]

Oh Tina... This performance was incredibly touching.

[@ClementWymiens]

C'est supeeeeeeeeeeerbe!! Bravo et merci!!! (-^_^-)

Sublime performance of haunting music by a magnificently gifted artist. Doesn't get much better than this. When you describe Tina's work, you run out of superlatives............

[@Matthewtrayling]

Brilliant!!

[@daveamsterdam2509]

A red dress for a red coat girl... played amazingly. Every time a musician like you Tina, raises an instrument and produce this specific music, the world becomes just a little better, while we remember how bad it could be. Some people pray to God, some people stand a moment and remember the millions who were exterminated, while the world stood across, and some just listen to this heart touching sad sound. Thank you, Tina!

[@emilyszillat2932]

OH MY GOODNESS!!!!! YOU ARE SO PERFECT!!!!! YOU'RE AMAZINGLY AND INCREDIBLY TALENTED!!!! YOU PLAY WITH SO MUCH PASSION!!!!! AH HOW I LONG TO ONE DAY PLAY AS WELL AS YOU PLAY!!!!! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR TALENT!!!!!! I JUST LOVE HOW MUCH EMOTION YOU PUT INTO PLAYING!!!! i FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS AS SOON AS YOU PLAYED THE FIRST NOTE!!!!!!! I ASPIRE TO BE LIKE YOU!!!! YOU'RE SERIOUSLY AMAZINGLY, INCREDIBLY, EXCEPTIONALLY, ASTONISHINGLY STRIKINGLY AND INDESCRIBABLY TALENTED!!!!!

[@mohammadjouni9250]

watch the Luka Sulic Version of Schindler's List, much better !

[@ElLyribe]

I'm not a critic, but I prefer this version. Luka Sulic' version makes me feel incredibly sad; but Tina's version makes me feel pain, totally breaks my heart ... I have no idea about music, it's just what it makes me feel... Anyway, thanks for the recomendation (even it wasn't intended for me).

[@mohammadjouni9250]

You're welcome :)

[@jadenwentz6773]

Lyribe I couldn't figure out the difference between the feelings the two gave me, but you nailed it. I think Luka's version is more straightforward, while this version has a little extra that causes the feeling of pain that you're describing.

[@razvanbordei6802]

...the way you make that cello sound,... feels like those strings are tied to my spine !

[@RArmandoMorabito]

u r the Best!

[@kira9311]

you play exactly like me.....i play aswell always with eyes closed....love playing this peace....you played awesome!

[@stevenabercromby8769]

.....as a bass player....inspired by jaco...stanley...marcus....MK.....i nlw find as much and probably more inspiration in this lady to keep playing and dont plateau..keep going if you stay there it will fill ur life and soul...in your work and people around you with negativity and kill ur soul and ambitions. Tina and her music and art has given me the same desire and inspiration to play the bass and express myself again. I now play reggae bass....far from the spark from the 80's giants that slapped my heart. Now i have an other hero with 4 strings that i can embrace, learn and be in complete awe of. So much respect for this Lady. Blessings peace and love
