Hauser Mp3

Christmas is “one from the heart” from cello sensation HAUSER, celebrating his lifelong affection for the music of the Christmas season in an all-new album of favorite carols and songs, sumptuously arranged for orchestra and choir to feature his inimitable cello artistry. The music of Christmas was a beloved part of HAUSER’s childhood and family life in his native Croatia. Sharing that with the world has been one of his dreams. In addition to 12 global perennials both classic (“Silent Night,” “The First Noel”) and pop (“White Christmas,” “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas”), Christmas also includes “Amazing Grace” and a personal favorite of HAUSER’s, one of Mozart’s most radiant melodic inspirations, “Laudate Dominum”.

Global cello sensation HAUSER brings his artistry and passion to a new selection of classical music’s greatest melodies with the release of his new album Classic II, a follow-up to the worldwide success of 2020’s Classic. For the new album, HAUSER has chosen and realized 18 unforgettable melodies in revelatory new arrangements, which were recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Robert Ziegler. Classic II reimagines instantly recognizable, song-like melodies by Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Chopin, Donizetti, Dvorak, Mahler, Mozart, Rachmaninoff and Schubert, most of them written for solo instruments, voices or an entire orchestra and never before adapted for the "voice" of the cello. HAUSER also brings his singing style to two beloved melodies in the Baroque style - the Albinoni "Adagio" and the Adagio from Alessandro Marcello's famous Oboe Concerto - as well as a pair of contemporary pieces, Michel Colombier's "Emmanuel" and composer/pianist Yurima's "Kiss the Rain."
