Meet the newest member of Las Cafeteras @yoyoma ✨😄

Before Headlining the @hollywoodbowl tonight - he came to the Barrio to jam out and sing “La Bamba Rebelde” with us ❤️ He didn’t announce it - he didn’t do it for promotion or for “likes” - he just wanted to go to different parts of the city and connect & learn & share

Earlier in the day he met with Cultural workers like @ronfinleyhq and played alongside Tongva artist @kelly_mija

After the meeting with LA organizers - he met us at Hollenbeck Park … we walked through the neighborhood … took pictures with @corissahernandez as we passed by @houseofxelas … walked over to Mariachi Plaza and played for the Mariachis waiting for the next gig ❤️ Right in front of Santa Cecilia Restaurant (the Patron Saint of Music)

I was able to meet @yoyoma the person - not the artist - we joked and laughed & talked about how music is medicine … and how important culture & connection is at this time

Thank you for listening and for sharing your art … and like I told you … “This is our first time connecting … but not our last” ❤️ #lascafeteras #music #is #medicine #yonocreoenfronteras

Throwback to 1973 with Manny.

Yo-Yo Ma and Emanuel Ax are two of the hundreds of musicians who have met and made lifelong friendships at Marlboro Music. The duo played their first concert together, in a Marlboro performance of Brahm’s Piano Quartet in C Minor, August 3, 1973. Happy 48th Marlboro Anniversary @yoyoma and #EmanuelAx 🎶🥂🎶!

'Zemian' is the Payuan word for circle dancing. For Indigenous Peoples' Day in Taiwan, Bach Project Taipei partner Abao阿爆（阿仍仍） has released this 360-degree performance video, envisioned as a circle open to all people. Have fun exploring and be sure to look up after the 1:20 mark!
