International superstar cellist HAUSER debuts a new single, “It’s Not Unusual,” offering a fresh and ebullient take on the 1965 hit, originally made into a timeless classic by Tom Jones – listen and watch the music video HERE. At the same time, HAUSER releases a stunning new visual album for his Billboard crossover chart-topping full-length album THE PLAYER, out now on Sony Music Masterworks (listen here). The captivating visual album features four new music videos from THE PLAYER collection, including “Quando, Quando, Quando,” “Señorita,” “Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White,” and “La Isla Bonita,” all released this week. The ever-charming HAUSER debuted a new video each day turning Valentine’s Day into Valentine’s week!
“Quando, Quando, Quando” sees a masterful reinvention by HAUSER, pairing his soulful cello work with sparkling piano melodies, punchy percussion, and a luminous string section. Meanwhile “Señorita” beautifully reinvents the 2019 Latin-pop hit by Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes; a bittersweet tale of troubled romance. “Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White” is a touching, yet melancholic exploration of the jazz classic composed by Louiguy (the Spanish-born French musician famed for creating the music to Édith Piaf’s “La Vie en rose”). “La Isla Bonita” takes on Madonna’s Spanish-guitar-laced hit, with a faster pace and added brass. Rounding out the special music release week, “It’s Not Unusual” arrives as the crème de la crème a show-stopping display of HAUSER’s versatile musicality.

HAUSER’s visual album follows the release of the song and video for Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “The Phantom of the Opera” celebrating the 35th anniversary of the legendary Broadway musical, which is officially set to close in April 2023. “The Phantom of the Opera” received great praise from Rolling Stone, who applauded HAUSER for his “deft” performance, calling it a “dramatic cello revamp.”
Looking ahead at tour dates set for 2023, HAUSER sets his sights on bringing THE PLAYER’s songs to life on the www. “I’m excited to share these songs in a way that no one’s ever heard before,” he says. “My vision is that we’ll get everybody up and dancing!”
