Yo-Yo Ma Returns

Yo-Yo Ma returns for an unforgettable evening of music with your Toronto Symphony Orchestra. Led by Conductor Emeritus Peter Oundjian, the program opens with the rhythmic drive of Gary Kulesha’s Torque and the electrifying energy of Rachmaninoff’s Symphonic Dances before turning to the emotional depth and intensity of Shostakovich’s Cello Concerto No. 1. A singular artist with a rare ability to connect with audiences, Ma brings both virtuosity and humanity to every note in a performance sure to resonate long after the final chord.
