Low Strung is a group of classically trained Yale University musicians turned rock cellists. Founded in 2006 by orchestra alumni, the ensemble performs iconic pop and rock songs—from Queen and The Beatles to Lady Gaga and Beyoncé—all arranged exclusively for twelve cellos. Their mission: to break down barriers between classical tradition and popular culture.
Since its founding, Low Strung has performed across the United States and around the world, appearing at the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland, Las Vegas’s Aria Resort and Casino, and on tours through Thailand, Singapore, Costa Rica, China, Chicago, Atlanta, and Los Angeles.
“The only Standing Room Only Music at the Med we have had and definitely the only double standing ovation ever! … a VERY HARD ACT TO FOLLOW!”  – BECKY MANCUSO-WINDING, MUSIC SUPERVISOR OF FOOTLOOSE AND ROBOTS
“This radio-ready repertoire is a world away from that of other musical ensembles at Yale.” –Â Â THE YALE DAILY NEWS
