Yo-Yo Ma: 30 Years Outside The Box

A life's work in a box-a box almost as beautiful as the music within. Inside the case-made, velvet-lined, lift-off box are 90 CDs in mini-jackets with original cover art. The discs contain nothing less than the recorded history of Yo-Yo Ma: 88 CDs of albums (including 15 Grammy winners) plus two CDs of bonus tracks-all remastered with DSD technology. The sum total of the music defies categorization: Hush with Bobby McFerrin, Appalachian Walts and Appalachian Journey with Mark O'Connor and Edgar Meyer, his stunning tributes to the music of Brazil ( Obrigado Brazil and Obrigado Brazil Live in Concert ), his hit collaboration album Songs of Joy & Peace and on and on. The 312-page hardbound book boasts rare photos, essays, artist bios, track lists, original liners, a glowing foreword by Emanuel Ax and messages from Ted Kennedy, James Taylor, Alan Alda, Alison Krauss, Dave Brubeck, Wynton Marsalis and many other admirers. Each limited-edition box comes individually numbered with a letter of authenticity a truly magnificent release from a once-in-a-generation talent.
