Over past 30 years, cellist Yo-Yo Ma has gone in countless directions including Brazilian bossa nova, Argentine tango, American bluegrass, and world music for the Silk Road Project. He joins us today to talk about the many collaborations he's forged along the way.

I was recently able to see Yo-Yo Ma in concert. It was an amazing performance. I didn't review the actual performance, but did write up the experience here:

Great show; I can listen, most days. Was wondering if a show on Jacqueline du Pre is planned, or have I missed it? This is the 20th anniversary of her passing. Thanks.
YoYoMa! What a beautiful & melodious name for a musician. I eagerly wait to see a {double CD plus Blu Ray} project with Peter Gabriel & John McLaughlin SHAKTI group. These three giant musicians are the only people in the World Music scene today that their focus is
Musicians without Frontiers & World Music.
I do invite all the readers of this comment to invest 2 hours of their precious time & browse the Internet & learn what these 3 Giants have done to our ears & most important our Souls.
I bow down in respect.
Cheers.
Hamid.
