The Essential Yo-Yo Ma (2005) more music like this

Unlike the recent Classic Yo-Yo, really a single-disc sampler of the recorded work of our true superstar cellist, The Essential Yo-Yo Ma purports to be something more -- the Yo-Yo Ma album to own if you're going to own just one. Where Classic Yo-Yo more or less alternated track by track between Ma's straight classical and crossover music, The ...

This disc repackages tracks of a romantic mood from a variety of Yo-Yo Ma discs released over the course of his strong-selling album career. A few of them (track 2, for example) come from recordings of straight-ahead classical repertory, and there are several new tracks, but most are taken from the cellist's fabulously successful series of ...

What makes Yo-Yo Ma a great cellist? His controlled lyricism, his focused tone, and his restrained passion. What makes Ma a great musician? His extraordinary breadth of taste. While other artists dream of crossover hits, Ma has them -- and plenty of them. As demonstrated on this disc called Appassionato -- it might have been called "Greatest Hits" ...

XueFei Yang follows up her extraordinary EMI debut Romance de Amor with 40 Degrees North, named after the latitudinal line that runs through both Madrid and Beijing. It also runs through Columbus, OH, and divides the state of Kansas from that of Nebraska, but these places have not contributed to Yang's playing; she reveals in her liner notes that ...

The piano didn't arrive in China until the early '20s, and it wasn't until the early '50s that the instrument was absorbed enough into the fabric of Chinese culture that piano competitions were held there. Since the 1980s, having a piano in one's living room has become something of a status symbol in China, much as it once was in the United States ...

The Silk Road has taken a little detour to Chicago for the latest undertaking by cellist Yo-Yo Ma and his Silk Road Project, which involves collaborations with a wide variety of musicians, not only Asian ones, connected to the Windy City in some way. The triumphs of Ma's forays into world music might be termed logistical ones; he has, over the ...
