Dvorák: Cello Concerto in B Minor / Yo-Yo Ma, cello / Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra

[@Exascale]

No one on this earth has the power to extract more tears from my face than Yo-yo Ma with that Cello

[@GenevieveGrahamAuthor]

The look of appreciation he gives the principal flute around 19:24. So classy. So personal. I've always loved YoYo!

[@dordiwesterlund2528]

This orchestra is great - just amazing, great conducting, I am in awe.

[@1GoodWoman]

Yo-yo Ma has been an inspiration for the whole world. Thank you for sharing.

[@anijackson1927]

That was one of the most poignant and magnificent performances I've ever heart. Yo-Yo Ma seasoned in his tenure reminds me of why I want to be alive.

[@kunshan23]

Always one of my favorite, my boy is also doing cello, I guess I pass this to him

[@FantasyJoke]

That cello concert is the endboss of Planung cello. Big Propst to yo yo ma

[@Dylonely_9274]

Utterly marvelous. It’s one of the few concertos which I love all the movements at the same level. They are all outstanding, and the mindblowing ending can just not leave you disappointed.

[@tripleA34]

how on god's green earth does this not have more views??? this is quite possibly the most "pretty" piece of classical music i've heard in a while

[@tomswiftyphilo2504]

there are a lot of versions of it. They all have hundreds of thousands of views.

Would love to see Yo-Yo Ma in a live concert!

[@williammeek]

This is one of the many recordings I have listened to as of yet and I must say this is my favourite so far.

[@econhelp_official]

It's too much, I love Yo-Yo Ma so much, and this piece!!! Hands on my heart, there are no words to express how I feel listening to this!

[@tanenghok]

Dvorak wrote this pieces that helps make Yoyo-ma a genius cellist.

[@ianfraser4243]

Yo-yo Ma, one of the greatest multi-talented musicians of our age. You should hear him playing traditional chinese music. He does here as an encore

[@sandrinemodeste8457]

Listen Gregor Piatigorvski

Yo-yo Ma is an incredible gift giving person I love. His music heals my soul, body and mind.🙏

[@Mr583HATSUKARI]

I think so, too.

[@akacopernicus5320]

Sautille, ricochet and octaves on the cello?? I'm a violinist and it blew me away when he did all these difficult techniques. Also the audience clapped between the movements; sacreligieous!

[@seanfielding8209]

Perfectly reasonable to applaud after a blockbuster first movement of any concerto when the virtuoso has been particularly competent, let alone when one has just heard, in a small city in Canada, an inspired performance by the torch-bearer from Casals through Rostropovich.

[@TheRealCoryKent]

Nothing like these comments to make people feel like they're not wanted in the world of classical music. SMH

[@theresachen168]

@@TheRealCoryKent Quite the opposite, everyone is welcome and wanted here.

[@TheRealCoryKent]

@@theresachen168 I'm referring to the comment saying clapping between movements being sacrilegious. People who are not versed on etiquette for performances shouldn't be criticized or made to feel bad for something that is really not harmful at all. Clapping expresses joy and appreciation. Nothing pleases God more than Gratitude for His work. Comments telling someone or some people they are doing something heinous and awful would turn away many people. Thus, I stated, "making people feel like they're not wanted."

[@suzannebrokaw7885]

I play in an community orchestra, happen to be performing this lovely concerto this weekend - but I wish the audience WOULD be 'allowed' to applaud between movements! It gives the players a chance to take a breath, and every movement is worthy of appreciation!!! Yes, it's 'sacreligious' but those of us who are performers appreciate the .... appreciation!! :D

[@meridamorales6809]

Sublime!

[@yaliemaggie5414]

I love YoYoMa's playing so much !!! and I ENVY him !

[@robertdaniels42]

For everyone who thinks the cello is quiet, are you listening to it on your phone? If so, I don’t think a tiny phone speaker can truly capture the range and expression of a cello. Try casting it to your television or listening to it on headphones. I feel like his instrument is pretty well balanced with everything else that’s going on. If that doesn’t help, listen more carefully or find another recording. Thank you and have a good day.

[@kathycahill1698]

Thanks Calgary Phil. I really loved this!

He must be very popular in Calgary; or was it because he came out to play an encore with a cowboy hat. Just a scene of involvement and enjoyment. The Appalachia Waltz is certainly a relaxing and enjoyable encore.

[@theresachen168]

By the way, that cowboy hat is a tribute to Calgary tradition. Even the British royals like William and Kate wear cowboy hats while visiting Calgary.

[@felicitasramobeltran4816]

Muchas.....muchas gracias 🙂 😊 💕

[@pietromelis7887]

Guardavo un film intitolato "La diga del disonore" sul canale televisivo La7 e percepii subito il secondo tempo del concerto per violoncello ma non riuscivo a ricordare chi fosse l'autore. Per esclusione pensai che potesse essere Dvorak. E infatti la memoria non mi aveva ingannato.

[@nonosquare1066]

thats the definition of practice

[@suzannebrokaw7885]

you do know why, right? It's to get it perfect... I'm certain that Yo-Yo Ma has played MANY parts over and over and over... that's why he's as amazing as he is!!

[@Rico.DurtyD]

I've grown quite wheareh

[@a-aron6133]

I watched all of the first movement, and then tried to skip ahead to the third for a few minutes (to see one of my favorite moments where the theme from the first movement comes back before the triumphant ending): I took my best guess as to where this might be in the recording, and I was very surprised when suddenly... Yo Yo had a hat!!! 🤠 My first thought was...”why did he put a cowboy hat on for the third movement?😂

[@CalgaryPhilharmonic]

Are you familiar with Calgary's White hatting ceremony? It's a long-standing tradition in Calgary, a symbol of the Western hospitality and good cheer we like to share with visiting guests. The white Smithbilt hat has been bestowed on numerous celebrities and dignitaries on their visits to our city since the 1950s.

[@a-aron6133]

Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra That’s great! I was not familiar with that tradition. How cool though! By the way I love this performance. I am currently learning this piece and love to listen to different recordings. Keep up the good work!

Take Note : Mic is placed on top angle down for best recordings.

[@carolynwheeler8475]

Yo Yo Ma combines mastery of this fine instrument with feeling,passion,depth, beauty. I only wish that the cello was more prominent in this recording. Balance between orchestra and cello is way off.

[@Fernwald84]

I'm listening with headphones and the balance is fine. Besides, the orchestra's playing is of high caliber--strong front desk playing and conductor has equaled the 2015 Ma version with the Prague Philharmonic under Bělohlávek.

[@sheilalyons8148]

Needs a small extra amp under his chair. Does his cello need a tuning? Still world's best. No clapping between movements.

[@Apeskinny]

yea let's put a lavel mic on the cello cos that's how it sounds in an orchestra hall.. Way off is you having no understanding about sound and recording but still thinking you're entitled to comment... Here's some advice, go and listen to some actual real orchestras in real life and understand why the cello isn't be more "prominent".... And also, just appreciate the playing you heathen........
