It makes me happy to know that some people are doing exactly what they should be doing for a living. Thank you all for picking up an instrument and daring to see what could happen.
Wow wow wow watched it at least 60 times and still get tears in my eyes , simply one of most incredible pieces of live music I have ever witnessed. Listen to the rhythm crested by the melody at 3m 45 s . What incredible musicians please go on tour and drop by Dublin, Ireland
I fell into a very hard episode of dysthymia (a 'kind' of depression) during 2020, almost eight months fighting against this mental illness. There were times in which I couldn't control my thoughts and I honestly believed I was never going to be able to have a normal life again, that it didn't matter if I died tomorrow or in sixty years. I found this song on Spotify by chance, and I swear to god, it was the only song I could listen to in order to calm down, even during panic attacks and other things the medicine couldn't control itself. It was truly a blessing to have found your music, and I believe something or someone out there put you all together to bring joy and heal. Yesterday I took my last pill of antidepressants, and gathered the bravery to leave this comment, as my treatment is finally over. This may never get to you, but I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me getting stronger at times that I was hanging by a thread. Thank you so much for devoting yourselves to music so people like me can find a ray of hope in these when life seems pointless. Thank you, thank you so much.
Sending lots of love ♥️♥️♥️ 2020 has been such a terrible year, but I’m so proud of you for making it through and reaching the end of your treatment. Thank you for summoning the courage to put this out there and carrying on when things got too hard. You’re incredible and I love you so much. ~ A stranger on the internet, who also looks to music for joy and comfort in such a shitty world.
WOW. God bless you and your complete honesty. Music does something to the soul that is hard to verbalize. It's wonderful that this does that for you. Everytime I watch this, or listen to my CD version, I'm transported to heaven 💖
I agree it is the kind of music that touches your soul. I call it transcendental…it makes me happy to listen to it. I’m glad to see it has helped you in your illness, that is truly miraculous.
I saw YoYoMa and the Goat Rope Rodeo at Meadowbrook Amphitheater in Auburn Hills, MI, an outdoor venue on a July summer evening in 2013. My best friend of over 50 years had just had a Bone Marrow transplant and was doing ok. Not long after the concert started, i had a call from his wife telling me that he had just died. This venue had seating in a shell and a grassy hill behind. I bought a couple of glasses of wine and sat on the hill by myself listening to this beautiful music thinking of my friend and they put me in a very peaceful place with the soothing eclectic music that is impossible to explain. I will never forget this night and will be forever grateful t them.
I found this song when I quit drinking. Celebrating my 8 year sober anniversary later this week. This jam is magical, no matter what it is, if you're reading this, if you're listening to this, you got this
I love your comment. I've had so many things going wrong in my life... really, really wrong... but I listen to this! I breathe in...I exhale...I breathe in...I focus on the good in this music... and I'm able to feel better.
I love how you can tell each of them are so in love with their music and their art. They are all playing with such passion and joy. How euphoric this must have felt
I agree. I listened to this for the first time in a while yesterday, and I fell in to a trance listening to the upright bass. I never paid it enough mind, but it was beautiful!
"Attaboy" can bring me joy even on my darkest days. Watching them take such joy in the music and in each other's company makes the world a bit brighter.
i dont understand why people say this is real music, theirs no fake music, music is an expression of emotion, a language, therefor anything can be music. please understand everyone has there own preference, and also learn to appreciate all music. Rap for instance is just a poem thats sung by music artists. this is why i can appreciate all music. hope i thought you something ;)
Oh, my stars! I bought 'The Goat Rodeo Sessions' immediately after the album was released, as I have been a dedicated fan of all four of these players for many, many years. But until seeing this video performance I did not realize how perfectly synchronized and tuned-in to the same emotional frequency they all are, while at the same time playing such very different parts. My heart is in my throat, and I am finding it hard to express my feelings just now for this performative achievement. Bravo, gentlemen.! Your talents are much appreciated.
Also, I was lucky enough a summer ago to work closely to yo yo ma and he is nothing short of one of the nicest and most genuine people on this planet. just being around his energy made me a better musician
This is what happens when you take 4 musicians at the top of their respective instruments, each a legend in there own right and set them in a room together, Goat Rodeo is pure magic. Im so happy to have seen Chris in concert and he is a wizard on the Mando
The most hilarious aspect...is that I am fairly certain they were not making a greatest of all time joke. They were literally referencing a "goat rodeo" concept. Meaning: organized chaos.
Yeah, I feel pretty sure about two things: no one on earth can play the mandolin like Chris Thile-not even close-and no one on any instrument is as dominant on that instrument as Thile is on the mandolin. I play the mandolin, and the most brutal part about Thile is he’s barely older than I am! I never know, after watching him play, whether I want to practice like mad or just never play again, lol.
@@eashton42 I feel that way about the elite guitarists of the world, and specifically the masters of modern acoustic. Have you seen Antoine Dufour or Luca Stricagnoli? They are next level masters of the acoustic guitar. And there are quite a few others in competition with them. I will never be that skilled, yet I am not sure I regret the attempt to be.
I love Yo-Yo Ma's expressions - they tell you what you can already hear, that he's putting his whole heart into a piece of music. These men are nothing short of superb!
favorite song since it came out and someone intro it to me...it tells a story, dont know what it is but it always makes me happy and puts me in a busy bee mood
i never thought i’d have much of an interest in music like this. yet here we are. this making me feel like my life is a little more worth living. it’s like it’s just telling me is gonna be ok. that something will happen. that i’ll have more than what i’ve planned. it just makes my heart beat faster and lifts my soul in a way
It’s been almost 10 years now and this song still means as much to myself as it did then. If not more. Memories have been made at various times listening to this. With just myself in Gods creation of nature, my family, and friends. Been blessed to listen to the beauty of this composition while looking upon a thousands miles of the mountains of New Hampshire and Vermont.
My music teacher (Jason Truby of POD and Living Sacrifice) played this whole album in class on Monday, and all of us loved it! He said if they're ever in our area, the class will be going to see them. They're crazy good!
Go Stuart! Oh, this makes me cry...his solo is never the same twice. (On the record it's simply fantastic--he hits that high note at 1:23--goosebumps :) I thank God for this song! What a talented guy (and group!)
The concept in these Goat Rodeo Sessions is so intriguing! It's simple and straightforward in one moment, complex and intricate in the next; it highlights all 4 instruments in different ways at different times, and none of the players are ever fighting for attention; it's classical and it's bluegrass and it's Irish folk and it's Americana...and it's all just so amazing!
I watched the videos after seeing this on Colbert. Yesterday I bought the CD. It was only $10. I suggest everyone who liked this video does the same. The album is absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to listen to it again.
I don't know why but, this music brings overwhelming emotions and happy tears to my eyes. Really speaks to my soul in a wonderful way that I cannot explain.
I have shown this to multiple people and listened to it countless times.. this is music. the kind of music that paints a tapestry in your mind, The music, that when you close your eyes and listen.. paints wondrous and beautiful landscapes simply through the power of the music and the human imagination.
At the Miller outdoor theater here in Houston there is a small hill. I was five and my three older brothers were flying kites. Afterwards they said let’s run down the hill. I started running then I realized, “I can’t stop.” My brothers saw I was scared when I fell down then they all pretended to roll down the hill and fall again and again. This made me laugh instead of crying. This music gives me the butterfly’s the same way falling down the hill did. Thanks gentlemen, for the once forgotten memory.👦🏻🪁🧑🏽🦱🪁👦🏻🪁👧🏻
This album motivated me so much as a double bass player 😂 I have no idea why! I played through most of highschool and now I’m 20 and listening to this all over again!
Good Lord , how wonderful this ‘sound ‘ is …..what music making is being done ! Any where that Yo Yo Ma goes is classic with me ! So darn great and beautiful !!!!!
The concept of a quartet is often a very beautiful concept in music. In terms of this style of neo bluegrass, you basically have Upright bass, cello, mandolin and fiddle. That basically fills out the frequency spectrum within the range of the ability for the average human being's hearing. (50HZ to 30ish KHZ) Hertz and Kilo Hertz. Metric system. Scientific notation.
The emotions flowing from these men through these instruments inspire me to tears. I feel some kind of primal memory of when our sole consciousness was music.
Yo-Yo has always been Yo-Yo. I've listen to him for years. Stuart, Edgar, and Chris are now on my list of favorite musicians. They go together like the masters of Jazz, "Four Play".
Garth my bro. Chillout. Go listen to black sabbath again lol. I would say you should bite the head off a bat, yet the world cannot really handle sarscov2.0 right now.
We all ride our antique race bicycles to some large shady trees, perfect for slack lining. Its about 75 degrees, but a calm breeze cancels it out, and makes the leaves lightly flutter. All the friends and the girlfriend are here messing around with the slackline, Andy has the sound cube out, and starts playing some blue grass and Yo Yo Ma. The snowcapped mountains linger in the distance, and some mountain cyclists ride by, covered in mud, indulging in what summer has to offer. Harmony.
thank you is not enough but I thank you for making my new house a true home among the raccoons, skunks, deer, mountain lions, pines, stars, sky, and moon.
Toastergod44 And don't forget the Punch Brothers... They have some very incredible music along these lines also. Chris plays mandolin, search them on here. Plenty to find!
Music like this that makes me wish I had learned a string instrument instead of learning saxophone. but DCI makes me wish I learned a brass instrument, so I guess it's all fair.
It makes me happy to know that some people are doing exactly what they should be doing for a living. Thank you all for picking up an instrument and daring to see what could happen.
Gosh what wonderful thing to say. So spot on and so well put.
Ow my gosh I love that
:)
The cello makes a gorgeous sound. Really inspiring. I learned violin, I’m thinking I made the wrong choice lol!

So sorry about your friend but glad that this gave you comfort and good memories. Hope you are well!
Sounds like a little memorial your friend would have loved.

Have you ever just loved something so much it makes you tear up? That's how I feel every time I hear this. Absolutely amazing.
Ya this is amazing I cinda just wanna cry
From 2021: I’m cryin too. There’s literally nothing better than this particular group playing together.
Word!
Yes!!!
Me too......
yo-yo ma's part is so fantastic. i love how the song is split up in a way that emphasizes each instrument at different times.
The violinist got me. Staurt duncan or is he the banjo guy? Lol either way they are all 👏 👏 💜
@@morganlamack6545 thanks for reminding me of this video. good stuff. just watched LOTR and think this would be perfect for a hobbit party scene lol
@@morganlamack6545 Stuart Duncan on the violin-or fiddle, though with a song like this it’s hard to know which word to use!
@@morganlamack6545Stuart Duncan is on the violin, Edgar Meyer on the standup bass, Chris Thiles on mandolin, and Yo-Yo Ma on cello!
This just seems to say, "It will all be okay".
Thank you Yo-Yo and friends.

@adkgirl Hello, how are you doing? It is nice meeting you here.
I love how every time you listen to it, you feel a different melody, it's not the same every round I replay the video. Never gets bland. :)
I agree. I listened to this for the first time in a while yesterday, and I fell in to a trance listening to the upright bass. I never paid it enough mind, but it was beautiful!
In every version of this song I can find, this is the only version where Stuart kills that High D at 1:31. Bets part of the song.
"Attaboy" can bring me joy even on my darkest days. Watching them take such joy in the music and in each other's company makes the world a bit brighter.
@susi Hello, how are you doing? It is nice meeting you.
Sometimes music like this is the only thing that keeps me going.
Been there. You got this
This song. Every time. Beings me to tears. So much talent in that room. This is real music.

you must not be a musician
I can say, without any doubt, that this is one of the greatest songs ever written.
YT sux, in that we can only give it one Thumb Up. Four would do, for such fun genius.
Definitely
Jesus, Edgar Meyer at aroun 2:15 - just incredible speed and precision from a bassist. No wonder at least 1/2 this group are certified Geniuses.
Only half?
Everyone present is recognised as the living expert of their instrument.
Every single one of them is at the very top of their field; all utterly brilliant.
Who says you can’t play a mandolin like a guitar? Tell Thile that after the five minute mark. Attaboy Chris, keep doing what you do best!
This is the greatest thing in the world
Music on the highest order.......Truly amazing.
I've been saying this to myself since I first heard this song. This track is hot
You are correct

I’m literally up at nearly 2:30am listening to this and crying 😪 anyone listening to this in 2019? Pretty sure it’s just me 😭
I am! Right there with you.
Hi hi 2020 lol
Hell I’m still listening to it in 2023… this song makes me tear up every goddamn time
I heard this by chance on the radio this morning, and loved it. Thankfully the radio station had an online index, so I could find out what it was.
This is like the finest French wine. Only with this, you can refill your glass by hitting 'replay'
I, just, want to kiss each of them on the mouth and say, "Thank you for sharing your beautiful selves!"
Also, I was lucky enough a summer ago to work closely to yo yo ma and he is nothing short of one of the nicest and most genuine people on this planet. just being around his energy made me a better musician
chris thile has gone above and beyond!
Nah, braugh... It's on the 5.1 channel stereo surround hi-fi. Hope my neighbors enjoy it too. :)
Wow. Damn... this magic existed for 10 years before I got to hear it.
gives me goosebumps no matter how many times i listen
when was the last time we saw a superstar this enthused with music?
Now I understand, what a sweet addiction to music means

use earphone, prepare for that violin on 1:30, tickles my back, stings my ears, vibrates the back of my neck, and brings me to teras
His phrasing is just so damn good
Stuarts the best fiddle player ever for sure.
What IS this, and why am I only now realizing how much I need it?!?
This makes me feel happy. That is all I have to
report.
Four authentic musical geniuses. Absolute masters of their craft.

if it wasnt for the Colbert Report i would never have heard any of this amazing music.
Notes into music,
bows, fingers, strings; four maestros
give many hearts wings...
I pre my pants every time I hear this incredible musicianship.
1:30 makes my heart explode in my chest, even after watching this video well over a hundred times. Incredible

This is an album I come back to many times. I have only grown more fond of it.
Listened to this track over a hundred times and it has never gotten old :)
The emotions flowing from these men through these instruments inspire me to tears.
I feel some kind of primal memory of when our sole consciousness was music.
Sometimes I forget to breathe.
I love it. This is what will suck people into folk music but it will be pretty impossible to beat the quality.
I remember playing this at a concert. It was so. friggin. hard
2nd thumbs up for your username.
But is that why thear band name is Goat Rodeo?....to infinity and Beyond!...
Undertale Trash UT trash it's a compliment
How'd you put it together? I wanna play this with a group.
How did you put it together cos I really want to play it with a group
best music ever i've heard.
Yo-Yo has always been Yo-Yo. I've listen to him for years. Stuart, Edgar, and Chris are now on my list of favorite musicians. They go together like the masters of Jazz, "Four Play".
Goose bumps.. every time!
I can not stop listening to this. It's so great especially the mandolin, but it's just incredible how everything comes together musically!
Masterpiece
Just one of many gorgeous tracks by Goat Rodeo.
Absolutely Brilliant.. i don't know what else to say..this is what art sounds like
We are not worthy....

Never noticed how they all do a 'bow' high five at the end! legends.

Toastergod44 And don't forget the Punch Brothers... They have some very incredible music along these lines also. Chris plays mandolin, search them on here. Plenty to find!

Pure masters.
