The Boston Youth Symphony (BYS) under the artistic leadership of Music Director Federico Cortese, performs the Dvořák Cello Concerto with master cellist Yo-Yo Ma, as well as other works, as part of its 50th anniversary season, at Symphony Hall on Sunday, May 18 at 3 p.m. Tickets are $50-75.

Always eager to break down barriers and inspire new platforms for learning, cellist Yo-Yo Ma wanted to see what would happen if the cultural institutions of one city focused all of their energies on a single event.

Yo-Yo Ma just now finished a breathtaking performance of Anton Dvorak's Cello Concerto with the New York Philharmonic Opening Night Gala Concert - Lorin Maazel.

On September 15, 2007, at 7 p.m., Seattle Symphony Orchestra’s 2007-2008 season officially kicks off with a concert featuring world-famous cellist Yo-Yo Ma. The French-inspired program will highlight works by George Gershwin, Gabriel-Urbain Fauré, Maurice Ravel and Camille Saint-Saëns. Ani Kavafian will debut as one of Seattle Symphony’s newly appointed concertmasters.
