NEW YORK, Dec. 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Internationally acclaimed cellist, Tina Guo, thrills in her debut album Game On! (Sony Masterworks) available February 10, 2017. The vibrant and dramatic album showcases some of the most popular and well-known video game music around with epic orchestral arrangements led by Tina Guo's high-octane solos on electric and acoustic cello. The new video for Pokémon is out now – view it here: https://youtu.be/cUvg419gay4.
The blockbuster line-up of video game music includes covers from top-selling games Call of Duty, World of Warcraft and Halo, together with songs from all-time classics Mario, Zelda and Final Fantasy plus Journey, Chrono Trigger and Metal Gear Solid.
One of the world's most versatile musicians, Tina Guo is as much in demand as a soloist with Hollywood's top composers such as Hans Zimmer, as for her virtuosic skills on classical stages. Tina Guo can be heard on the scores to several recent blockbuster films, TV shows and video games including Batman v. Superman, Sherlock Holmes, Inception, CSI:NY, Vikings, Call of Duty: Black Ops II and III, Diablo III, Hearthstone, Journey, Assassin's Creed Syndicate and many more.
Equally as comfortable in classical concert halls as giant rock arenas, Tina Guo has performed to millions of people across the globe in sold-out venues from Carnegie Hall to Wembley Arena. She has shared the stage with some of music's biggest names including The Foo Fighters, Stevie Wonder, Justin Bieber, Al Di Meola, Carlos Santana, Far East Movement, Ariana Grande, Skrillex and many more.
