A rare opportunity to experience Yo-Yo Ma, one of the world’s most celebrated cellists, performing solo in an intimate setting.

Across a career spanning more than six decades, Ma has made over 120 recordings, won 20 Grammy Awards and received some of the world’s highest cultural honours. His wide-ranging career has been shaped by a belief in music’s power to connect people, cultures and the natural world.

The programme of unaccompanied works will bring Ma’s extraordinary musicianship into close focus while exploring our relationship with the environment.

Part of Planetary Health, a season exploring the relationship between human health and the health of the planet.
