July 30, 2020 - 2 Cellos Stjepan Hauser has just released an amazing new performance from Dubrovnik

2 Cellos Stjepan Hauser has just released an amazing new performance from Dubrovnik. The video is the latest in his Alone Together series, which sees the world-famous cellist play music from some of his favourite movie scores.

So far in the series, he has visited places like Pula Arena and Krka Waterfalls. But, this time he has travelled to the south of Croatia to film in the stunning location of Dubrovnik, the Pearl of the Adriatic.

Serving as the most-spectacular location yet, you can see the walled city in all of its summer splendour by checking out the video right here.

2 Cellos Stjepan Hauser in Dubrovnik

June 15, 2020 — One half of Croatia's most popular orchestral stringed-instrument duo held another concert, practicing extreme social distancing in a serene Croatian location.

Stjepan Hauser released his second "Alone, Together" video, this time filmed in Krka National Park. The 22-minute concert streamed on YouTube on June 15, garnering almost 100,000 views in its first hour. It features the cellist sitting on a rickety wooden chair familiar to many Croatian kitchens, keeping way more than two meters distance from the nearest person as he floats in the middle of a lake in Krka National Park. You can see his performance in the video below.

"After completing the 'Alone, Together' performance at the Arena Pula it occurred to me that with such beautiful locations nearby there is a fantastic opportunity to play my favorite repertoire in these extraordinary settings," Hauser said in a press release. "Not just one but a whole series of unique performances! It means so much to me to be able to connect with so many of you; even though I may be playing alone, we can still share that experience together. And the Krka waterfalls performance has a special significance for me as this one will go out on my birthday!"

The cellist released a similar concert video in April, at the height of the solo or Zoom concert wave that coincided with the coronavirus outbreak. His set in Pula's Arena has 1.6 million views so far and counting.

Hauser was part of the famous 2Cellos duo, which garnered critical and popular acclaim until it went on hiatus in 2018. The duo, Hauser and Luka Sulic, became famous for their covers of Top 40 pop music hits. Yet it was clear Hauser and Sulic chafed at becoming a novelty act.

Hauser's solo career has seen him shift over to reinterpretations of classical music staples, putting the cello at the center in his most recent solo album, Classic.

The 2CELLOS are back and better than ever with the release of their new album and latest music video on October 19, 2018.

The Zagreb Philharmonic Orchestra has opened its season under the new festival Zagreb Classic. With a very promising concert calendar ahead, this is a great summer opportunity to bring a blanket and enjoy music on the grass, in great company, for an evening in King Tomislav Park you surely won’t forget.
