Yo-Yo Ma at Tanglewood

Yo-Yo Ma is a golden thread in the Tanglewood tapestry. That's a nice sentence of praise, but it's a bad metaphor, because Yo-Yo Ma is more versatile than gold. In my twenty years on the Tanglewood beat, he has been at the heart of a range of programs so diverse that it boggles the mind. From assembling a mini-festival in celebration of Brazilian music, to accompanying James Taylor on various occassions, to his ground-breaking ensembles The Silk Road Project and the Goat Rodeo, Yo-Yo Ma is the quintessential artist - ever searching, ever growing.
