Vitamin String Quartet Performs Linkin Park's A Thousand Suns

Vitamin String Quartet

Aggressive cello rhythms and high-tension violin melodies transform Linkin Park's experimental rock into a focused, dramatic chamber music experience.

November 2010

A high-tension, dramatic interpretation that trades rock distortion for the sharp, urgent resonance of a string ensemble.

Moments Worth Listening For

The aggressive, percussive cello thumping on Wretches and Kings that mimics a hip-hop beat.

The way the violins mimic the glitchy, electronic vocal breakdown of Blackout through rapid-fire staccato.

The slow, swelling emotional build of Iridescent that replaces the original power ballad's synth with warm, layered harmonies.
