Yo-Yo Ma and James Taylor at Tanglewood

On August 11 cellist and Berkshire resident Yo-Yo Ma brought his Bach Project to Tanglewood, performing all six Bach Cello Suites in a single concert. Following the concert's standing ovation, he spoke of his and Tanglewood's shared passion for nurturing young talent, asking the audience if they'd like to hear from a local singer-songwriter. James took the stage and the two joined together in what James called "the only suite he'd ever written: Sweet Baby James." James and Kim underwrote the concert in memory of composer Andre Previn, who along with Yo-Yo, played at James & Kim's 2001 wedding #CultureConnectsUs #yoyoma #JamesTaylor #JT 🎵 NEW ALBUM 🎵 https://found.ee/JTAmericanStandard 🌟 FOLLOW JAMES ON SOCIAL 🌟 https://www.facebook.com/JamesTaylor/ https://www.instagram.com/jamestaylor_com/ https://twitter.com/jamestaylor_com 🌐 VISIT THE WEBSITE 🌐 https://www.jamestaylor.com/ ✉️ JOIN THE MAILING LIST ✉️ https://www.jamestaylor.com/mailinglist/ 🎸 FREE GUITAR LESSONS BY JAMES 🎸 https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4C7B31793C012820
