- You guys have been asking for this one for a long time. I've honestly been intimidated by trying to cover it because it's sooo epic and detailed. After my recent stint in LA with Hans Zimmer, I was inspired to give a try! So here you have it, the most demanding video I've done to date, The Dark Knight! I hope you enjoy it!
(also includes themes by James Newton Howard).

He's not the Cellist we deserve, but he's the Cellist we need.
Underrated comment
Sometimes the original isn't good enough. Sometimes people deserve more. Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded.
@@alvaro.sacris1930 CALVOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
😂
lol
sounds so professional I almost believe this is the ACTUAL soundtrack!! 😱
It isnt the actual soundtrack?!😨
No way this is a cover.
hmm most the sounds in this cover are just impossible to be reproduced on cello unless it is an electric cello. He's doing a lot of vibrato as shown visually, but it isn't heard at all. Also looking closely into 2:57 there is a clear crescendo in volume but the speed and contact point of the bow is simply not changing at all. Also at exactly 3:00 the audio and video isn't synced. Most times what he's showing visually isn't heard at all also. When there's 6 shots of him playing different parts, only 2-4 of the videos are actually barely heard. Many of his covers are legitimate but this one is very very sketchy. Lots of questionable parts and it honestly seems like he's faking many parts visually and using the real track... Just my take on what I saw from the video from a cellist perspective.
AndyBear Thanks for your insights! I‘m also a cellist, actually. :) I totally get your point. I think I‘d position my opinion in the middle. As I make covers myself, I know that syncing an already recorded audio with my movements on video is very hard. At least this I can forgive him because I do believe he doesn‘t record audio and video at the same time. What I have to agree on is the sound quality. Hans Zimmer doesn‘t use cheap samples and I guess he’d not just give away the info, too, about what samples exactly he uses. Additionally, I own an electric cello and do very many things with it - I don‘t think these sounds here can be produced on it. It must be VSTi for sure. On the other hand - who says that ThatCelloGuy hasn’t invested in some really expensive orchestra sample libraries? If you have the money, you don’t need Hans Zimmer’s info, you just look up the (expensive!) possibilities that are used by the pros and go for it. And then, although in my case it would be rather unlikely to do so, it is possible to reproduce almost the same sound as in the original. I commented on this video a year ago when I had much less experience in VSTi and music production. Now I see things a little clearlier.
plot twist: this is the actual soundtrack kkkkkkkk kidding
0:00-6:19 this part is really good.
this comment is older then youtube xD
Juan Contreras BAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA
@@JuanPabloContrerasC I'm pretty sure RUclips's been around longer than 6 months ago..........
lol
@@JuanPabloContrerasC maybe older but never outdated. He was right. AWESOME PIECE OF WORK!
my favorite part is at 4:33, this is the part that plays at the end of dark knight when gordon is saying his famous "he's the hero Gotham deserves" monologue.
You should do the skyrim theme song.
we want skyrim!!
hell yes
Guard might get nervous. A man approaches playing music other than that of Skyrim
YASSS
Yessss!!!! Please!!
Hans Zimmer is freaking amazing , and you my friend compliment his work beautifully. Wonderful job 👍
he worked with hans
Spr.l Wow is that true?
@@shakespearsplat Yeah, I think he got to work with Hans Zimmer for the Lion King score
James Newton Howars worked on this as well
The emotion you play with is truly incredible man!
You got some serious talent. You do not ever need to feel intimidated. This was amazing. That last part from 4:33 on was so well done I had to hear it three times. I had tears in my eyes it was so good. Your covers are really good and if I could make a suggestion for future ones. I would love to hear you cover The Last Samurai (A Way of Life, Spectres in the Fog, and Red Warrior definitely). Also if you ever heard of the song Death is the Road to Awe by Clint Marshall, a cover of that be cool too. Can't wait to see more! Now to go listen one more time.
Excellent choices!
Read this comment while listening to this for the first time. Kept waiting for this part, and I now 100% agree with you. That last part was incredible, jesus! Blown away.
@@BrainSane237 I still come back and listen from time to time
How on earth is this guy so talented? This is amazing.
He performed in real life with Hans zimmer! He’s a professional musician. He’s also performed with Carrie Underwood and with several diff symphonies.
That arrangement, the transitions from one track into another in particular, is incredible.
The parts with the acoustic classic cello is so good!!!!
I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this since I first discovered you, but still goosebumps every time! 🔥
Yo, that cello solo near the end. Goosebumps
Dude I had to double check it wasn't background audio. You have some serious talent!
*Slaps top of ThatCelloGuy*
“This bad boy can fit so much EMOTION!”
Every time I drive through Lower Wacker Dr this is the track that plays in my head!
about 4:40 I almost lost it. that was brilliant!
Absolutely beautiful, peaking in that epic 4:35 to 5:55. I must have played that part back 10 times the first time I listened to this.
there's something magical about what you do. listening to the original, i get goosebumps. it's epic. listening to yours i get goosebumps and i nearly shed a tear. there's such beauty you add.
Im in love with this piece as well as Chevaliers de Sangreal. You did an excellent job in bringing 2 of Zimmers masterpieces to life.
Oh man, that feeling that you put on this theme!, I loved it so much
“Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight.” 5:30 - 6:19
You are absolutely amazing! Please keep making these covers, they’re just pieces of art, in all its capacity and beauty.
So beautiful so amazing great and wonderful I don't understand why people dislike it.
You are the biggest reason I have become obsessed with learning how to play a cello. I already play many instruments, but the warm, deep and rich emotional sound of the cello is something that goes straight into my soul. Saving up money to afford to buy a cello next year! Huge thumbs up and respect to you! 😊🙏
Amazing talent! I love all your work so far!
Why hasn't Zimmer hired this guy yet? I'm also a Cello player and I gotta say, freakin impressive! Wow!
Also, it's really cool how you can see the musician's face displaying a bit of emotion as he works the cello.
what you have here is a top flight virtuoso who knows how to use all the music technology available. a killer combo
You are a deadly combo of musician and engineer man!!! Awesome!
Best movie ever and the best composer ever. This was performed amazingly well, I love it. You have true talent. Remember it's not who you are underneath but what you do that defines you - Batman Begins
As much as I didnt like the movie, your cover hit the spot. The soundtrack does tell a story, the breaks, chorus' were wonderfully depicted. Thanks again for another piece of stellar work.
There are so many cellist about but omg this guy is the best , so refreshing, I’m about to buy a cello and I can only hope I can be any way near as good as this guy some day , I’m 52 never to old to start , so anyone else out there is thinking they are to old to start learning any instrument no your not go for it , 😅
Perfect! Can you please do blue planet 2 or planet Earth 2 main themes? They are also written by hanz Zimmer and they're amazing
mohammad .H you might have a winner in that Planet Earth 2 theme!!!
What an intense piece of music. Your projects are epic. Your playing is masterful. Bravo to you!!!
Whoa, talent or work, the result is amazing.
Instant sub.
Beautiful, ear-gasmic music as always my good sir! Always a pleasure to see you upload something new; listened to it as soon as I saw it. And a wonderful solo near the end! Keep up the good work!
John Stewart ha..eargasmic..i love that
Beautiful, absolutely, Thank you.
Super masterful! Best video to listen to while brewing my coffee on a cold Monday morning 💖
The passion you have when you play is breathtaking🤍 thank you so much for your musical contributions to my life
This is wonderful. It's always amazing to see more of you. You are immensely skilled and talented.
You are unbelievably gifted and a true maestro. I started following you awhile back, but havent been on here for some time. I'm glad I came back.
I saw you in a video "Give me Jesus" with Danny Gokey.
Theres pain in them strings ...
I once heard someone say "Carlos Santana can make a guitar cry", well..
1:14 classic Zimmer! Love it. Thank you and keep up the awesome content 😘
Also 3:39 - love the depth ❤
This deserves far more credit
I can feel the world inside the music
Ta façon d’être animé, habité par chacune de tes notes, est une ode à tout ce qu’il y a de plus beau et noble en l’humain. Merci d’être celui que tu es ❤️
seriously !!! it's just amazing !!!!!!!!!!
Like I’m watching the movie! This is insanely awesome!!
I think that what make you the best on RUclips, is that you feel and enjoy your music...
Your skills are amazing, I love hearing you play!
This deserves billions of views
I thought I had a movie ad, Iwas going to skip the ad but I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this was a cover. Very impressed with your talent and editing skills!
I love how the music possesses him. It's fantastic.
Can't tell difference between original and yours. Ure incredibly gifted
This trilogy is my favorite OST, and your version is absolutely breathtaking!
love the origin vibe at 3:35 !! that's exactly why I would love to play a cello!
Of my gosh! It sounds amazing! I'm lucky to find the video.
I'm glad i found this hidden gem of a video,you are a very talanted man,you deserve more views and subs honestly.
I played upright bass in school for 5 years for Jazz Band and did performances and such...But was never around the cello and did not really listen to its sound until the last handful of years (I'm 29 now) and really wished I had learned to play (I know I can always start). I just really like the sound it has and your videos are amazing!!
One word .. SUPERB!
You are an incredibly talented musician. Please post more.
Best cover in 2021, best emotion... very nice
this is so awesome. Almost cried watching this. thank you for that.
LOVE THIS!! One of my favorites, behind Time from Inception. You are amazing!
This is one of the best if not the best covers of TDK
My spine got the chills
My words have far too many emotions to properly describe feelings for this. Well done.
This is absolutely amazing, oh my goodness!! 😍😍
This should have like 2 Million views, absolutely wonderful
WOW! astonishing talented ! You do beautiful work, please continue to make these videos!!!!
Fantastic. This is a talent that should last long-stay healthy. Again, you are amazing.
2:45 I have nothing left to say! Amazing :)
Wow, that was amazing, and you seemed to loved playing it, very nice to see! :)
I was looking for chills , i got chills
I just had to hang up a business call to fully focus on this masterpiece... they'll understand.
Hahaha
😂😂❤❤
Incredibly passionate. Bravo, sir, bravo!
All I want in my life is to hear your version of message to bears-you are a memory!!!!
This video is the definition of EPIC
Please do more covers for The Dark Knight trilogy! That was majestic!!!
If you want to see someone who has found what others have been searching for all their lives. Look at him. Making music with an (electro) cello in the form is really great.
I just found this channel and I’m so glad I did.
Still cranking out awesome music ... thank you so much again ... and please don't stop
Wow. That was amazing! Youve inspired me to rock tomorrows lesson and to express those emotions i feel when i play alone
I got goosebump, this is an incredible work, i follow you since long time ago now and you've always impressed me ! This is my favorite soundtrack, Hans Zimmer made one of the best i've ever heard but now you joined him.
Never stop ! You will go really far.
Awesome job 🤝
He said “I can take it”, not without pain, sacrifice and endurance.
5:38 ThatCelloGuy is about to cry.
1:40 puts a smile on my face
Amazing🙌 talent 💯 keep going brother, you are up there with the legends🙏
This is what RUclips is for. Raw Creativity. Expression. Art. And maybe some cat videos. But I must ask, will it stay this way?
Gorgeous!!!! It amazed me.. Too beautiful
Omg 😳 this is unreal, amazing, well done
So professional mind blowing.
Truly a magnificent performance. Thank you sir for your hard work and dedication to the craft of music-making.
This music is sublime, a composition that demonstrates the greatness of hans Zimmer, Thanks for doing it to vilonchelo !!
Bravo, Sir! Bravo! That was bloody good! 🦇🖤 🦇🖤 🦇🖤 🦇🖤
That’s a lot of talent! Nice job!
Thank you for this, just thank you! Outstanding work!
Good sir, you deserve all the praise you earn! You should be contacted by the big leagues because that was authentic enough to be from the silver screen. Bravo good man!
Simply stunning!
Breath taking , so emotional, well done, & so on
Gotta love the OG cello for the emotional part
This was just. So spot on.
