Anderson & Roe Piano Duo - BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY - Queen
A love letter to the legendary Queen album, “A Night at the Opera,“ the Anderson & Roe Piano Duo offers their most over-the-top music video yet: “Bohemian Rhapsody.“ (Visit for Anderson & Roe’s complete collection of self-produced music videos.)
Acclaimed Steinway Artists Anderson & Roe have created an epic two-piano cinematic reimagining—chock-full of opera characters and tropes throughout its three-act storyline—as part of Steinway & Sons’ Music & Vision series, which delivers performances across musical genres in wide-ranging locations, featuring instruments crafted by Steinway & Sons, maker of the world’s finest pianos.
Freddie Mercury himself said: “We break a lot of rules. It’s unheard of to combine opera with a rock theme, my dear.“ To come full circle, Anderson & Roe reclaim the classical roots of Queen’s timeless hit, infusing it with playful nods to Wagner, Liszt, and 18th-century comedic opera. “Freddie Mercury was so overtly influenced by classical music,“ note Anderson & Roe, “that it was especially exciting to tackle ’Bohemian Rhapsody’ as classical pianists, composers, and filmmakers. We’re sending our love back his way by celebrating the vision, pathos, rebellion, and flamboyance of this iconic song.“
