  Wow Yo yo is becoming more humorous!😊 I love that at age 70 he doesn’t care two hoots about how well he plays the cello. He is an angel who uses his fame to do the work of bringing people together with humility so that we can all have more reasons for optimism.

  This humble musician teaches us to connect with our fellow human beings, wherever they may be on this planet. Whether we are immigrants or citizens, we are all „legal“ human beings. And when he plays those beautiful pieces by Bach, which I grew up with, It‘s not about him, it‘s about reaching out to others. So uplifting and positive!! Thank you, Yo-yo Ma!!! ❤ ❤ ❤ 🙏

  He seems to enjoy every moment and he's played it thousands of times. Living human treasure

  Great interview.  My favorite Yo-Yo Ma performance is him playing the same piece of Bach on his balcony during COVID breakout.  Many thanks to Mr. Ma.

  This is my first time listening to Yo Yo Ma.  The discussion of nature and the human connection to it through water was brilliant.  His experience of witnessing an abundance of knowledge, talent and kindness within every single culture in the world inspires hope.  We are more than our gender or ethnicity. We are more than our family or country or even our humanity.   Our connectivity to every living thing is nothing short of miraculous.  Thanks for the inspiration, Yo Yo. 🥰

  Yo-Yo Ma rocks. He rocks thoughtfully, generously, expressively, and with a whole lot of humanity. But he rocks!

  &quot;I have to wake up every day and decide once again, it&apos;s worth it! You gotta do the work, as my late brother-in-law would say, &apos;Do the work! Do the work!&apos; &quot;<br>Thanks, Mr. Ma! Been a fan of yours since I saw you on Mister Rogers all those years ago. ❤
