Cellotic Soundtrack Ensemble

Music from movies, TV-shows, Anime & instrumental soundtracks covers. A unique ensemble from Berlin.

About

The Cellotic Soundtrack Ensemble (CSE) plays instrumental soundtrack music from films, series and games of various genres. The selection of mostly song-like pieces includes well-known and popular works of cross-generational melodies. The covers, interpreted with cellos, piano and percussion, are based on music from fantasy titles such as "Game of Thrones", the anime classics of the Japanese "Studio Ghibli" or Hans Zimmer's works, such as the soundtrack to "Interstellar". These include deeply melancholic as well as intensely rocking interpretations.

All arrangements and interpretations are genuine originals of the ensemble. Every piece has their own rich character while maintaining the atmosphere of the original.
