The Silk Road Ensemble: NPR Music Field Recordings

[@rubenskiii]

The only problem with this video is that it is too short. Amazing!

[@Crapweeds]

I love Yo-Yo Ma so much right now.

I live in an area with a proud Scottish culture. Communities still host Highland games, there are traditional piping bands and it is not uncommon to hear someone on their back step practicing their bagpipes (you can hear it for blocks). With that said I have NEVER heard anyone squeeze the sounds out of a bagpipe like the woman in this video. Silk Road Ensemble wormhole, here I come. Edit. The bagpipes are referred to as a "gaita" here. The gaita probably originated in the middle east. I definitely never knew that. Wormhole activated... send help.

I love this song. I wonder how Yo-Yo Ma could resist playing properly.

This is pure awesomeness

[@mattchase-burcham2892]

What a bunch of weirdos.....i love it! =]

[@itwashimmusic]

Yo Yo is like a Dad, hard committed to the terrible, terrible Dadjoke that he is perpetrating. And just the same as a terrible, terrible Dad punchline, you love it more and more as it goes on.

[@mikemerrill4073]

I wonder if my harmonica playing would fit in there. That would be fun. Love this.

[@Leodervfbfan]

[@rob_odd]

It must be a terrible sound for the guy with the helmet.^^ Or maybe he has in-ears? At least his ears are protected.^^

[@MrSuperXToast]

Is he really singing?
