About Playlist

When you think of the classical music greats, the name Yo-Yo Ma is definitely one of the first to spring to mind, especially his performances of the Bach Cello Suites, Brahms trios, Beethoven concertos and other classics. However there is far more to Ma's career, which has been eclectic to say the least. Known for his formidable technique, rich tone and effervescent personality, the joy Ma finds in music is particularly evident in his collaborative work—such as the Silk Road Ensemble, a musical project promoting the study of the cultural and artistic traditions from along the ancient Silk Road.

Ma also regularly performs and records bluegrass and jazz fusion music with a strange ensemble of cello, double bass, mandolin and violin. This same formation (sometimes without the violin) has also performed newly arranged versions of traditionally classical pieces which gives them a whole new dimension.

If thought you knew Yo-Yo Ma, think again. Use this playlist as an opportunity to discover more about one of our Hi-Res Masters of the "classical" world.
