@KhmerSerey1 NO HES NOT.

[Tricku100]

elmo is so cute ~!

[yBeagle]

yo sem comentários...mas elmo...lhe digo que som hein!? heheheh

[DudeitsYanzie]

It's wonderful how God has given us so many talents. Everyone had a beginning, as did Yo-Yo Ma. After all, I doubt he's always been a musical genius; we've all been young once. ^^

I myself is still at a young age. I think it's extremely cool how Yo-Yo Ma was able to capture so many hearts with his music, and I love it. God has given us all something truly special, whether it be the gift of art, music, etc.

Keep on playing, Yo-Yo Ma!

[wllmrly81]

omg him and his son are god good players

[fercha90s]

cool! i really enjoy watching yo-yo ma playing

[NeoBuoo]

LOL OWL

[syaoranpies]

YO YO YO MA MA MAN

[anonymous1991]

Lol

[zelinatan]

I love this!! Yo-Yo with Sesame Street!

[sjmh280491]

what's he playing at the start?

[sylvmyster]

that was cute

[Sakio442]

He introduced himself lol. ^__^

He wanted to play since his father played (Bassoon I believe?) and he always saw the Cello since they were in the front. So he tried playing cello... unfortunately, since he was so small, he had to learn from a very large Viola until he was big enough to have a Cello.

[rumilb]

love it.

but what's the duet he and his son play at 3:15?

[Foxhound9m]

I helped him through that. Hilarious!

[FalseNomen]

I love how at 3:12 his son just jumps right into the song.

[killerbandit]

I love that he was on Sesame Street.

[unkown00234]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

[hao91920]

wow so good

[Snowflake641]

He's so nice... real down to earth guy. And it's unmistakable. That's why God made him so talented... Thanks for sharing this video.

[Kurtyoungblood]

Yo-Yo Ma made himself so talented.

[tromboneCavender]

well, talent is a multiplier of effort, so both.

[bunjalung1]

they call me eye candy

[Penguines]

Lol

"I'm proud to have known Elmo before he became famous"

Lol

I wish I knew Elmo. I wish I knew Yo-Yo Ma =(

[bustewy]

i play the cello

[Alexjr1543]

Well so do I. Does that mean we're talented, though? Because I'm not really a beginner anymore, but I still sound terrible.

[singinginachurch]

I love the expression he has when he says," I`m proud to have known Elmo BEFORE he became famous."

[XangelkatzX]

good one zan :P

[Hitsugayarocks123567]

[KhmerSerey1]

[Rostth1st]

[wubbie12]

Elmo is playing "professional" col legno! Hihi...

[pigberto]

I didn't realise until you said it, lol

[HolyCow3000]

OMFG MR.ROGERS :D but he died :(

[hoho428]

Yo Yo Ma is a great cellist :)

[donutouch]

At 0:48 one of the hairs on his bow broke.

Great cellist, great cello.

[fishingrox199]

[sarahwaffle]

[7878666]

[herodotus53]

Damn mangy Muppet interrupted his practicing. Have some respect, son!

[StarveAndRun85]

[KirbyPwnz13]

Does he really think Elmo is real?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

[StarveAndRun85]

Do YOU really think that he thinks he's real?

[d10sturg]

[4nongerms]

they told him to "pretend"

[alchemyroxmysox]

lol

yoyoma

lol

I wish I was sweet like elmo :3

[cami13rocks]

[MasterIsh91]

that is going to be the most insanely talented family in the world!

[apegirl88]

Cutest little kid ever.

[sunflowerssunshowers]

Yo-yo Ma is hilarious and awesome. "I helped him get there". haha.

[leon1scott]

Yo-yo ma @ sesame street!

Your cello and your playing is just soo good~

[bruintran]

I love Yo Yo Ma. :0) Happy thoughts :0)

[20695]

YO-YO MA YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!

[abcomania]

i thought Yo-Yo Ma's son would play the cello not the piano

[bravetheheat]

Piano is easier to use and provides some foundation :) (Can you imagine the poor kid trying to hold up a cello?)

[Commandodudes]

YO YO MA

[PrettyPrinceOparties]

not only is he a great cellist, but a great person!

[AJMcCool44]

go yo yo ma!

[bassistintherain]

People like Yo-Yo Ma restores my faith in humanity. It is nice to see people be like this. I hope I could be as good as Yo-Yo Ma- in my cello and bass studies plus my reasoning and kindness with kids, people exc.

[junly7]

man, i wish i have such talent little boy as my child.

good luck u both <3

[Madcat5150]

cool

[mermulade]

Wow, I love cello (because I play it)

-Go YO-YO MA!!!!

[infiniteFinality]

Thats so adorable X3

[orchdork52]

Yo Yo Ma is my hero.

[1abbaschild]

What a thoroughly delightful video!  It makes me smile!

[jamipo4444]

If you're on Sesame Street, you know you're good.

[tmonkeypunch]

The beginning was just hilarious. "Yo, Yo-Yo Ma Ma man!" haha. This guy is such a nice guy.

[trentynh]

dude..lol i ment to put a thumbs up..lol sry bout the red thumbs down..lol so plz count it as a good thing!@.lol

[YouDontKnowMike]

People like this hardly exist anymore. Yo-Yo Ma has a real air about him of humility and kindness. I think that it is more important that we idolize such amazing and romantic figures especially in times of hardship i.e. America's current struggle and dissent amongst itself

[ice9487]

how could you have a problem with yo yo ma

[danenhod]

what a genuine guy.

[333phreak333]

Yo Yo Ma has one of the most amazing personalities I have ever seen. Just the way he talks, and the way he gives great credit to everyone he meets, you would never think he was a world famous celist. He is probably an amazing father. I absolutly love him, and all of his work.

[dexluther]

@333phreak333 And he introduced the beautiful world of classical music to millions of little kids on Sesame street and Mr Rogers.

[drumintel]

what movie is this from. or documentary or something. it looks like it is from one of those

[violiniist]

elmo is so cute playing the violin....i love this video!!!

[amplitudeFREQ]

he was pretty amazing playing crazy bus on Arthur too.

[RubyShoesBlues]

omg that was so cute with elmo...

[FightingSpirit13]

YO-YO MA IS MY FICKIN' IDOL!! omgosh....he's so inspiring!! I love him!! XD

[fLoH29025]

How old is Yo-Yo Ma in this video?

[Unknownhacka]

Truly an inspiration.

[HenryvKeiper]

I remember seeing that episode of Mister Rogers as a kid, it was the first time I had heard of Yo Yo Ma. Ah, God bless them both!

[lietuva91]

aww! adorable! XD

[rarehunter27325]

he is an amazing cellist

[moneyjr1122]

omfg he knew elmo! ah :D u rock yo yo ma

[collettestevie]

Same here...I did cry...fantastic.

[MonkeyMania1997]

that was so beautiful that i am crying

[TwiggyMarshmallow]

lol. this is so cute.

i learned a lot from Yo Yo Ma. The reason why I play cello now! heh!

[ghostpianist]

i wonder what it is like to be Yoyo Ma's kid

[cabbagemintor]

The lad looks very happy and confident and very very cute. He sure knows how to pick his dad.

[ghostpianist]

how cute is this hehe

[Soulrestorer]

Elmo is jammin..............<><

[aimhighdontdie]

lolollo holla!

[raymondgrc]

yo yo ma is better than my cello teacher.

[aethelphoenix]

Of course he is!

[danijanimi]

duuhh..(: lol

[cellist140887]

groovy!!!!!!!!!!!!

[YGYGYGYGYGYGYGYGYGYG]

Awesome kid can play both cello and piano. So musical like his Dad.

Cute.

[YGYGYGYGYGYGYGYGYGYG]

I would love to hear a celloist play without the talking though. I just want to enjoy the beautiful sound of the cello. I thought of taking up the cello, but it just looks so HUGE an instrument to play. I thought it would be just too difficult to get my arms around that baby.

(^o^)

(> <)

[deathsyte32]

you can get a smaller cello

and look up cello suite no. 1 played by Mischa Maisky

[UnderCoverSquid]

Yes, cello suite no. 1 played by Mischa Maisky is so good.

[danibobanny]

Best video ever!

[lala4493]

his son was so adorable!!!

[semprelegato]

yo yo ma's little son is soooo cute! so adorable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i just want to squeeze him!!

[ksong0228]

nevr knew he had a son.

[ricardodaskater]

yo yo ma

[InterlochenCellist]

Beethoven quartet for two honkers, dinger and cello!!! lol I love it!!! This is a great video

[RainnSnowFall]

[seanfair1]

[tangerinefish288]

[IndigoSpire]

[oblivion2500]

Really inspiring.

[SolphisStudios]

I love Yo-Yo Ma 99 times more after seeing this.

[ehsanul]

[SwEeTxAnGeL154]

[Shinegurl4eva]

hehehehem that's really amusing!!!That's so great how willing he is to work with them too!

[bbalmodovar]

little one... nice to see u again... Yo yo ma is such an spiritual person... he is more concerned about human understanding than music... quite curious coming from a person that is considered a virtuoso...

[HaMoOhAhA]

I never new he was on sesame street!!! That's amazing!!!

[messitup]

wow, amusing.:)

[jazzonkim]

is that his son?? wow!
