Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Project

Cellist Yo-Yo Ma brings the Silk Road Ensemble to Lincoln Center’s Damrosch Park bandshell for an outdoor celebration of music from the four corners of the earth. The Silk Road Ensemble is a collective of approximately 60 renowned musicians, composers, arrangers, visual artists and storytellers from more than 20 countries. Each member’s career illustrates a unique response to what is one of the artistic challenges of the time: nourishing global connections while maintaining the integrity of art rooted in an authentic tradition.
