Great Artists I
Since Yo-Yo Ma and Emanuel Ax first collaborated on stage more than 32 years ago, they have become “a cello-piano duo of the highest distinction” (New York Times). Similarly remarkable is Mitsuko Uchida, whose recent performance of the last three Beethoven piano sonatas at London’s Royal Festival Hall was “an experience of rare intensity” (London Times).
