- In honor of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, my friend Sara Wolfensohn and I contributed a performance of Rachmaninoff's Vocalise to "The Eternal Aria," a virtual musical shiva.
May her memory be a blessing.

This video was originally released on September 21, 2020, as part of Yo-Yo Ma’s #SongsOfComfort project, which was launched at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic to provide comfort in a time of anxiety and fear. The project inspired thousands of people around the world to upload their own songs of comfort in the months that followed.
I love these comments. I must add that the pianist is also a great artist, and the ensemble was exquisite. Thank you both for a moving performance.
Thank you so very much for your unconditional love and support where are you watching from?
This piece holds special memories as when our mother passed away in 2015 my sister collected a series of photographs of her and created a video of her 88 years with Vocalise as the musical accompaniment.
God and the Universe were showing off when you were made.
My Heartfelt gratitude for your music.
Beyond perfection.

Well said!
Thank you so much Yo Yo Ma for offer to the world your lovely art in this precious gift of peace and solidarity
And are still showing off.
Amen!
I am in tears from the sheer beauty of this piece and the way it was played. “Thank you” doesn’t quite encompass the complexity of emotions your playing brings, but its the best I can do. Your music is a gift.

I felt exactly the same way, what a gift this gentle, extraordinarily talented man is to the world💚💛🙏🏻
Your technique has always brought me to tears Yo-Yo Ma but when I actually watch you play, the expressions on your face have me crying and blubbering all over the place. Thank you for sharing with us a piece of your soul.💐………and RIP RBG
I am moved to tears. Music has the power to overcome you and open your heart in ways nothing else can.
Hauntingly beautiful. Thank you, Mr Ma. My heart is comforted. Bless
Such a touching performance! Thank you, maestro, and bravissimo!!!
❤
I have twice had the pleasure of seeing and heating him performing live in The Netherlands, decades ago. Those concerts are still the most memorable classical concerts I have ever experienced. Absolutely brilliant. His talent, passion, emotion and humbleness are from a different, better world. He was born to make our lives better. Thank you once again, mister Ma.
So very beautiful! What a fitting tribute to an incredible woman.🙏😪🇺🇸
Thank for this deeply moving music performed in memory of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. This accompaniment created a sacred restful space suspended in time.🙏🎼💐
RBG, may your spirit of dissent at anything unjust, always inspire us to action. Thank you YoYo Ma, for this music, lifting RBG up. Truly a comfort.
May her memory be for blessing.
Merci pour nous offrir cette sublime musique : délicieux instant de rêverie où je suis dans un nuage . Grand merci Messieurs.
A musical Shiva, nothing could be more appropriate!
Thank you so much for making this elegant piece of music in honor of Justice Ginsberg! May she rest in peace and may her bravery always live in us.

Dear YoYo Ma
The musicality of your generous and compassionate soul shines through as you let us into your ordinary clothed self that brings us deeper into your heart that rings out through your fingers into the resonance of your beautiful cello. It is for us to be able to say thank you to you YoYo. The spirit of your friend will be listening too
Most of the special experiences we have in life are only appreciated later; but once in a while there are experiences that - even in the grips of the moment - we appreciate not only for the present, but because one day they will be the kind of memory for which we will spill the "idle tears" that Alfred Lord Tennyson wrote of. This piece makes me think of those moments, the ones you never want to end because you know how much you'll be wanting them back for the rest of your life.
So beautifully said. So very true. This music makes me yearn for those moments.
Oh I love this piece so so much. First heard a recording of Emil Gilles playing the piano transcription and it moved me to my soul. This is so wonderful from the dream team. Thank you 🙏🙏🙏

Bravo! And thank you both. And thanks to the great Sergei Rachmaninoff, the last and greatest of the Classical-Romantics (Idk, Brahms was pretty great too, but not last). For another heartbreaking treatment of Rachmaninoff by these wonderful artists, search "Yo Yo Ma Rachmaninoff Cello Sonata"
Herzlichen vielen dank für die schöne Musik. 马先生：周末愉快！健康快乐！
Touching...
Breathtaking. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this wonderful piece honoring RGB. From the gift shop in the Contemporary Jewish Museum located in San Francisco, CA, I got this item with a saying - 'RBG May Her Memory Be A Revolution.' Whenever I look at this saying I rattle inside and stand in silence.
I love your bowing. You have such a command of technique that you make look effortless. Thank you for every broadcast you've made during these times.
なんと美しい音楽なのでしょうか。ささくれ立った私の心を温かく包み込みます。ありがとうございました💐👏💓

It's like your mind makes a journey to the universe, stop in the more beautiful places there is, and then moved on, way through this journey... And, close to the end, the magical sight of our blue planet!
My journey through the Universe!
As the mother of daughters and granddaughters, I pray they all have her wit, wisdom and grace. She is a guiding light for all humans be they male, female or otherwise.
The Notorious RBG strongly concurs with this most beautiful, haunting piece. It is our privilege that you shared it with us. Thank you, maestros. ❤
素敵すぎていつも楽しみに聴いています。またいつか日本で聴けることを楽しみにしています。
You are amazing!Thank you for sharing your talent with us!💕

That's beautiful. I will think of RGB everytime I hear this and her bravery and focus. Thank you.
Came across your performance with Ms. Wolfensohn - a rare gem from the garbage feeds from social media - I just hope people can listen to more of this.
What a joy! I meditate with your music and the sound streams into my body, heart and spirit.
Thanks for replying to mail from @officialYo-YoMa. I am doing well with my aging body of 87 years old, and still enjoying to be with your music for a nourishment of my heart and soul🙏🪷🧘🏽
i think YoYo Ma genuinely is the most talented musician of our, if not all, time. i’ve never heard someone make such gorgeous sound and emotion. i’m so grateful to witness it.
Heartfelt, inspiring and much appreciated. Thank you for this moment of quiet beauty and reflection.

Dear Mr. Ma, thank you for lifting our spirits. Wishing you good health and blessings.
There's a fine young man called Zhou Shen who sings like a nightingale. His voice has brought comfort to many during this difficult times. Lang Lang has collaborated with Zhou Shen a few times. Wu Tong also knows him. It would be great if you would consider collaboratiing with Zhou Shen virtually for your
#songsofcomfort.
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you ❤️
Oh, how I wish I could give a LIKE every time I listen to this! Magic!!
Thank you ☺️
Thank you so much for you music. You provide so much comfort in difficult times. RBG was and always will be my hero.

Thank you for being a wonderful Human Being!
Hello Yo-Yo Ma.I’m watching you from Thailand. I’m a big fan of all your works . You are my inspirations.
The composer, the players and the honoree all belie their years because this sounds like the combined wisdom of a thousand years. Like the incredibly dense matter weighing millions of tons per teaspoon in the core of a collapsed star, this performance really packs it all in.
Yet another sublime moment,...hesitate to say, but will share I sang this on my masters recital so many years ago, thank you deeply for your tribute to RBG and now to all so affected by this tragic event in eastern Europe, impacting all of us globally, again, thank you,,Martha
Tks a lot from 🇧🇷🇧🇷✨♥️🙏✨♥️🙏
Gracias por ese amor, Maestro Ma.
I love this so much. Just listening now because I have been watching/listening to Yo Yo and Manny with songs of comfort for ukraine. And due to the wonders of internet this popped up in my youtube. How did I miss it before? Simply wonderful.

I like how he plays the repeat in one section an octave higher. Effective and adds extra pathos
1995년 내한공연 후 당신과 악수를 나눈 추억이 떠오르네요
그 따뜻했던 손으로 여전히 아름다운 음악을 선물하는 당신에게 감사합니다

Sehr berührend und bewegend! Großen Dank an die beiden hervorragenden Interpreten!
Muito obrigado. Sempre maravilhoso.
Stunning performance by both of you! Thank you for sharing these amazing gifts during a time when the light of music is so much needed. 💙
Thank you so very much for your unconditional love and support where are you watching from?
@@yoyoman1719 I'm watching from Arizona in the U.S., Maestro. I was a professional flutist for many years, and music is everything to me! I had the honor of playing the Tchaikovsky Variations on a Rococo Theme with Leonard Pennario years ago. So many lovely exchanges between the cello and flute! I think I fell in love with the cello then! Your Songs of Comfort, with the glorious diversity and artistry, have been food for my soul, and I have enjoyed sharing them with my family and friends. 💙
