Rock ‘n’ roll cellos? Croatian musicians Stjepan Hauser and Luka Sulic, performing as 2Cellos, morph from Rossini’s “William Tell Overture” to Iron Maiden’s “Trooper” using traditional and electric instruments:

(Asking again: How can one post images or videos here, not just URLs?)
I like 2cellos, so I’ll help you post the video.
Ziggy, first you have to be on a browser and computer that allows you to embed videos. For example, I can't embed from a phone or an ipad, but I can from a desktop computer. I use Firefox. Keep coloradopols comment window open on one tab, then open another tab for your video.
Then, go to youtube or wherever you're getting your video from. Click Share . Then Embed ( looks like < > ) Then a code screen pops up ( at least on youtube). Then Copy . Then navigate back to the comment box on coloradopols.
Click on Source ( upper line of the comment box menus, on the right)
Your comment box changes to show html code. Paste your copied embed code at the point you want your video to show. then post the comment. Voila!
Interesting music. We'll recall, though, that Jeff Lynne incorporated cellos into Electric Light Orchestra in the early 1970s. Saw Jeff Lynne's ELO in concert at the Pepsi Center / Ball Arena in fall, 2018. Great show.
Thank you, kwtree, for answering my question with such clarity and detail. My participation in this forum had been frustrated by an inability to post images, videos, source citations, and so forth. These often accompany my comments at other websites.
Again, thank you for your thoughtful reply and gracious assistance. Glad you enjoyed the tune.

Beautiful.
Thank you, CHB, for sharing an extraordinary performance by truly exceptional (and new-to-me) musicians.
