Vienna Philharmonic 5+1 Cellists is an untraditional cello ensemble founded in 2008. Members of the ensemble includes five men and one woman of different generations forming an intrinsic tension between the performers. Concert dress and seating on stage varies according to the programme. Each artist plays a soloist as well as an accompanying role.

Each artist must therefore also function as an actor, thus demanding theatrical as well as musical talent from the artists. The repertoire ranges widely from Bach to the Beatles to music of the present day.
