Yo-Yo Ma: The Bach Project - Cello Suites [Blu-ray]

Всемирно известный музыкант Йо Йо Ма исполняет Шесть сюит для виолончели Баха, в нескольких шагах от Парфенона, в театре Герода Аттика в Афинах. Этот концерт является одним из 36 других, которые Йо Йо Ма дает по всему миру, в непрерывном музыкальном паломничестве с 2018 года. Виртуоз-новатор в классическом мире поражает своих слушателей музыкой, которую он не перестаёт лелеять на протяжении всей своей карьеры.

In 2018, Yo-Yo Ma began a two-year journey, setting out to perform Johann Sebastian Bach’s Six Suites for solo cello in one sitting, across 36 locations on 6 continents. For Yo-Yo, Bach’s 300-hundred-year-old music is one extraordinary example of how culture connects us and can help us to imagine and build a better future. In an unforgettable experience the 19-times Grammy Award winner and internationally acclaimed cellist performed the Cello Suites at the overwhelming Odeon of Herodes Atticus in Athens. Yo-Yo Ma says: “These suites are so meaningful. They’re not only companions and friends, but they’ve also been reference points in my life.”

“Soft sounds around me suggested that others were caught up in similarly strong emotions. How Ma has this effect on people is a mystery: I suspect it has to do with the warmth he brings to music that is fundamentally beyond comprehension. He makes the godlike human.” – Alex Ross, The New Yorker

Recorded live at the Odeon of the Herodes Atticus, Athens, 30 June 2019
