Strangers

Yo-Yo Ma
"I learn something not because I have to, but because I really want to. That's the same view I have for performing. I'm performing because I really want to, not because I have to bring bread back home."

Life

Quote_1.png
Yo-Yo Ma
"I'm not likely to forget where I've been and what I've done and learned. I think it's just as important to play new instruments as to play new pieces. The old ones are getting scarcer and the new ones more and more wonderful."

Yo-Yo Ma
"It took me way beyond what I knew, into places of which I was totally scared, but as I became less frightened, I welcomed new ways of thinking and approaching something. It made me an infinitely richer person, and I think a better musician."

Thinking

Yo-Yo Ma

Family

Yo-Yo Ma
