Yo-Yo Ma

It's been a long time. About a month. Slacking a lot. So many great things have happened in Italy and beyond. Went to Milano to go see the Black Keys play and had an amazing weekend in Amsterdam two weeks ago. Unforgettable. Finishing up with classes and getting everything in order to head back home for the holidays.

Tonight was a memorable evening at Il Teatro Pergola. Went and saw Yo Yo Ma play with Katherine Scott playing the piano. Unbelievable. An amazing Cellist and Pianist all in one room full of emotion and beautiful music. Plus, three encores! The icing on the cake to the evening was an angry elderly Italian woman telling off a rude young Italian man, because his disrespectful behavior during the concert. Talking...not allowed during the performance. "Maleducati!!!!!" The intensity of the fight was Great! Loved it and loved the concert. So many great things all in one night. Yo Yo Ma is rocks the cello.
