"We're heading for Venus and still we stand tall 'Cause maybe they've seen us and welcome us all With so many light years to go and things to be found I'm sure that we'll all miss her so.
It's not really classical music, that's the joke. They're covering "The Final Countdown" by the hair metal band Europe (http://youtube.com/watch?v=tt_ro2aerQg).
That reeks of awesome! Thanks for providing a link to the original song. I know I've heard it before.
Notes: long hair and headbanging while playing the cello makes it harder to see what your fingers are doing. The third cellist really didn't have a solo. The beginning sounds a lot like bagpipes.
