August 15, 2013 performance by Dave Read<\/a><\/h4>\n

\"Yo<\/a>If Tanglewood<\/strong> were simply Tanglewood, summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra<\/a>, its Tanglewood Music Center<\/strong> and eight or nine weeks of classical music performed by the BSO and their various guest soloists and conductors, we Berkshires locals would have plenty to be grateful for. But it is so much more, for so many reasons, not least of which is that Yo Yo Ma<\/strong> claims it as a sort of home for his seemingly boundless musical explorations. Incidentally, he also has an actual home in the Berkshires. (Goat Rodeo Show at Tanglewood photo: Hilary Scott).<\/p>\n

His latest musical trip led to the Goat Rodeo Sessions<\/strong>, the 2011 album he recorded with bsssist Edgar Meyer<\/strong>, fiddler Stuart Duncan<\/strong>, and mandolinist Chris Thile<\/strong>, which won Grammys for Best Folk and Best Engineered non-classical. Both the album and tonight’s show featured singer Aoife O\u2019Donovan<\/strong>, of Crooked Still and Sometymes Why. She reprised No One But You,<\/em> Here and Heaven<\/em>, from the album and added a stunning rendition of Bob Dylan’s<\/strong> Farewell, Angelina<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Everybody but Mr. Ma took turns on other instruments; Meyer played piano on Franz and the Eagle<\/em>, and No One But You<\/em>; Thile, whose singing blended nicely with Ms. O’Donovan’s, also played fiddle and guitar; Duncan also played banjo. Except that Ma seemed to indicate that Meyer is musical director, the impression from the audience is that these are four musicians equally expert in their own domains and equally excited to be making music with peers, just for the fun of it. <\/p>\n
