Recently I took a quick drive to see Yo-Yo Ma at the Chrysler Hall in Norfolk, Va. I had no inkling I would be seeing the cellist, until I got a notice the night before on my cell phone. I couldn’t resist a chance to see Yo-Yo Ma in person!
It was an incredible afternoon. He was accompanied by Kathryn Scott who choose the selection of music for the performance. The experience of seeing and hearing Yo-Yo Ma’s music flowing with ease from the cello is mesmerizing.
Fascinating to watch, the bow and stings draw you in with a calming affect. I closed my eyes and with the high and low sounds of the music.
I felt my body relax in my chair.
For me, music calms the soul and relaxes the mind. Thank you Yo-Yo Ma and Kathryn Scott for sharing your talent.
Bravo!
