In a special Sunday evening Shed concert, Yo-Yo Ma plays all six of J.S. Bach’s Suites for Unaccompanied Cello, music that has given him, in his own words, “sustenance, comfort, and joy during times of stress, celebration, and loss.” This concert is part of his two-year global initiative, “The Bach Project,” encompassing performances he will give of the Bach suites across six continents, coupled with what he calls “days of action,” seeking “to put culture in action by bringing people and organizations together to address pressing social issues” and “invite all of us to think differently about the role of culture in society.”
