SIMULCAST: We The People

This November, Yo-Yo Ma will perform Bach’s complete suites for solo cello for the first time in one evening at home, in Boston. It’s music that he has offered to communities on all six continents, in moments of joy and in times of tragedy. For him it exemplifies how culture helps us to seek truth, build trust, and act in service.

This is more than a concert for Yo-Yo: it is an invitation to listen to each other and the world around us, to celebrate our community and the ways in which people all over the world—and here in Massachusetts—are bringing us together, creating shared space for connection, reflection, and action, and imagining a better future. 

Live broadcast, one night only

Enjoy a live simulcast of the event as it happens, from three Boston and Cambridge locations hosted by Celebrity Series. Hear every note and get an up-close view of Yo-Yo Ma’s artistry.

People across Massachusetts will come together in libraries, theaters, and community spaces to enjoy a powerful, uplifting evening of music, free of charge and for one night only.

Celebrate the power of connection, reflection, and imagination: join friends and neighbors for this must-see live broadcast!

Admission to simulcast events is free, and seating is on a first-come, first-admitted basis. We encourage you to arrive early to the event, with doors opening at 7pm.
