Yo-Yo hits the op-ed page





Gift_2



In case you missed it, Yo-Yo Ma (some sort of musician, I think) has an op-ed piece in today's Boston Herald. The article, titled Culture's a Gift to Give, is based on Ma's remarks before the World Economic Forum in Switzerland last week. Here's a sample:



"Over the past 30 years as a professional
cellist, I have spent the equivalent of two full decades on the road, both
performing and learning about musical traditions and cultures. My travels have
convinced me that in our globalized world, cultural traditions form an essential
framework for identity, social stability and compassionate interaction."
