Van Wezel Welcomes The Silk Road Ensemble with Yo-Yo Ma

Grammy Award-winning The Silk Road Ensemble with world renowned cellist Yo-Yo Ma arrive at Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall on Wednesday, April 19 at 8:00PM.

Since 2000, the Silk Road Ensemble has been redefining classical music for 21st-century audiences. Established by exquisite cellist Yo-Yo Ma, the musicians represent a global array of cultures while co-creating art, performances and ideas. They draw on a rich tapestry of traditions that make up our shared cultural heritage, creating a new musical language-a uniquely engaging and accessible encounter between the foreign and the familiar that reflects our many-layered contemporary identities. Their most recent album, Sing Me Home, won the 2016 Grammy for Best World Music Album!

Tickets are $101 - $111 and are on sale now. Purchase at Vanwezel.org, the Box Office, or by calling 941-953-3368
