About the Music

Yo-Yo Ma joins young Peruvian conductor Miguel Harth-Bedoya for two works by the Argentine-born American composer Osvaldo Golijov, a BSO audience favorite in recent years. Golijov’s wonderfully atmospheric Azul was commissioned by the BSO and was premiered by Yo-Yo Ma and the orchestra at Tanglewood in 2006. Golijov’s Ausencia, for cello and strings is a reimagining of his string orchestra piece Last Round. Closing the program is Antonín Dvořáks masterful Symphony No. 8.
