(JANUARY 23 – NEW YORK, NY) International cello sensation HAUSER adds a grace note to his global hits Classic and Classic II, with the release of The Swan(Sony Classical), a new “musical love letter” to his instrument. The new musical collection features seven beautiful classical melodies transformed by the HAUSER’s deeply felt signature style and virtuosity, once again with the London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Robert Ziegler. Available for pre-save now, The Swan is set for release on February 13 via all digital music platforms.  

Accompanying today’s news is the release of the title track and music video for “The Swan” starring Italian prima ballerina Angelica Gismondo– LISTEN HERE & WATCH HERE.

“The Swan” – a gentle, rapturous melody from Camille Saint-Saëns’ The Carnival of the Animals – is an obvious choice for HAUSER. The piece has a profound, personal meaning to him.

“I was just a few years old when I heard a cello on the radio for the first time, playing Saint-Saëns’ ‘The Swan’,” HAUSER recalls. “I just fell in love with the sound when I heard it. It was like… I can’t describe it. It’s not usual for a child to know what he wants at an early age. But that was the sound. I remember thinking, ‘That’s it.’”

The Swan also includes all-new arrangements of two favorites by the French composer Gabriel Fauré – “Après un rêve” (After a Dream) and the lightly dancing “Pavane”; perhaps Puccini’s most beloved aria, “O mio babbino caro” from the opera Gianni Schicchi, popularized on the soundtrack the classic film A Room with a View; a worldwide hit from over a century ago, Sir Edward Elgar’s charming “Salut d’amour” (Love’s Greeting); and the robust, instantly recognizable zest of Johannes Brahms’ Hungarian Dance No. 5. 

HAUSER tops off this musical bouquet with a new take on the soaring pop anthem “You Raise Me Up,” best known in Josh Groban’s chart-topping recording. 

Though Saint-Saëns’ “The Swan” was written for the cello, the other selections on The Swan were written for voice, various other instruments or the orchestra. Like the selections on Classic and Classic II, they reflect HAUSER’s passion for taking the most expressive and unforgettable melodies, and adapting them to showcase the warm, singing tone of the cello.
