Both a household name and a classical music icon, Yo-Yo Ma is welcomed everywhere in the world for his generous humanity, peerless virtuosity and musical imagination.  His visits to Caramoor, dating from the earliest years of his career, have always been special events and occasions of exceptional audience delight.  In this concert, featuring two works for cello and orchestra, Yo-Yo will be joined by an exceptional chamber orchestra of young colleagues, The Knights, with whom he enjoys close collaborations in the Silk Road Project.

The program is a particularly appealing and accessible mix of lesser known works by well-known composers and new discoveries from exotic locales. 

Few ensembles are as adept at mixing old music with new as the dynamic young Brooklyn orchestra. (The Knights)  --The New Yorker
