Yo-Yo Ma & Kathryn Stott

Following sold-out concerts celebrating the Lied Center’s 20th and 25th Anniversary, Yo-Yo Ma returns to Nebraska with pianist Kathryn Stott for one of this season’s “must-see” performances!

Winner of 19 GRAMMY® Awards, Yo-Yo Ma has built a multifaceted career that is a testament to his enduring belief in culture’s power to generate trust and understanding. Yo-Yo Ma strives to foster connections that stimulate the imagination and reinforce our humanity.

Kathryn Stott was thrust into the life of a professional musician in 1978 via the Leeds International Piano Competition where she met Yo-Yo Ma. Since 1985, the two have enjoyed a collaboration that has taken them across the world and led to musical adventures with artists from various cultures.
