Silk Road Ensemble Biography

Silkroad musicians from many cultures together to produce art, performance, and ideas. The Wall Street Journal described the Silk Road Ensemble as "vibrant and virtuoso," the Vancouver Sun as "one of the 21st century's outstanding groups," and the Boston Globe as a wandering musical laboratory without borders. The Silk Road Ensemble, comprised of musicians and composers from over 20 nations, was founded in 2000 under the creative supervision of Yo-Yo Ma. Since then, audiences and reviewers in over 30 countries across Asia, Europe, and North America have welcomed these artists who are deeply committed to cross-cultural understanding and creativity. Six albums have been released by the band. Their new album Sing Me Home will be released in April 2016. The Music of Strangers: Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Ensemble, a documentary about Silk Road Ensemble musicians by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Morgan Neville (20 Feet from Stardom), premiered at the Toronto Film Festival in September 2015 and will have its European premiere on February 15, 2016 at the Berlin International Film Festival. In June 2016, the film will be released in cinemas. Check the availability of Silk Road Ensemble and other famous speakers and celebrities with a speaker booking agency.
