{"product_id":"songs-from-the-arc-of-life","title":"Songs from the Arc of Life","description":"A life is an arc of experience, from beginning to end and all the notes in between. The new album, Songs from the Arc of Life, is a musical journey shared by Yo-Yo Ma and Kathryn Stott, and a window into our universal adventure through life and time.\n\"\u0026amp;\"nbsp;\nLongtime friends, cellist Yo-Yo Ma and pianist Kathryn Stott, create a unique classical music experience with their new recording, Songs from the Arc of Life. The album includes pieces they have frequently performed but never recorded, as well as a handful of discoveries. Songs from the Arc of Life begins and ends with two, much-beloved settings of the traditional \"\u0026amp;\"ldquo;Ave Maria,\"\u0026amp;\"rdquo; opening with the soaring, radiant Bach\/Gounod arrangement and closing with Schubert\"\u0026amp;\"rsquo;s more serene, contemplative version. In between is a remarkable spectrum of music that includes such enduring favorites as Brahms\"\u0026amp;\"rsquo; \"\u0026amp;\"ldquo;Lullaby,\"\u0026amp;\"rdquo; Dvor\"\u0026amp;\"aacute;k\"\u0026amp;\"rsquo;s \"\u0026amp;\"ldquo;Songs My Mother Taught Me,\"\u0026amp;\"rdquo; Elgar\"\u0026amp;\"rsquo;s \"\u0026amp;\"ldquo;Salut d\"\u0026amp;\"rsquo;amour,\"\u0026amp;\"rdquo; Gade\"\u0026amp;\"rsquo;s \"\u0026amp;\"ldquo;Tango Jalousie\"\u0026amp;\"rdquo; and Saint-Sa\"\u0026amp;\"euml;ns\"\u0026amp;\"rsquo; \"\u0026amp;\"ldquo;The Swan,\"\u0026amp;\"rdquo; as well as richly evocative works by Debussy, Delius, Faur\"\u0026amp;\"eacute;, Gershwin, Grieg, Kreisler, Messiaen, Schumann, Sibelius and Tchaikovsky. Ma and Stott also include a haunting piece by the contemporary composer Giovanni Sollima, a friend and colleague of both artists. Songs from the Arc of Life is also available on 180-Gram vinyl.\n\"\u0026amp;\"nbsp;\nYo-Yo Ma is undeniably the most iconic classical artist of our time. Winner of 18 Grammy\"\u0026amp;\"reg; Awards, Yo-Yo Ma has sold over 7 million albums in the U.S. His 2008 album Songs of Joy \"\u0026amp;\"amp; Peace is certified Gold, and his last album, 2011\"\u0026amp;\"rsquo;s Goat Rodeo Sessions, has sold over 200,000 albums.\n\"\u0026amp;\"nbsp;\n\"\u0026amp;\"nbsp;\nyo-yoma.com\nsonymusicmasterworks.com\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0106G13AI\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B0106G13AI.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Yo-Yo Ma \u0026amp; Kathryn Stott\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
