Kathryn Stott and Yo-Yo Ma

O-YO MA was born in 1955 to Chinese parents living in Paris. He began to study the cello with his father at age four and soon came with his family to New York, where he spent most of his formative years. Later, his principal teacher was Leonard Rose at The Juilliard School. He sought out a traditional liberal arts education to expand upon his conservatory training, graduating from Harvard University in 1976. Yo-Yo Ma’s multi-faceted career is testament to his continual search for new ways to communicate with audiences, and to his personal desire for artistic growth and renewal. He maintains a balance between his engagements as soloist with orchestras throughout the world, his recital and chamber music activities, and his work with the Silk Road Project, for which he serves as Artistic Director. Ma is also recognized for his strong commitment to educational programs that bring the world into the classroom and the classroom into the world. One of his goals is the exploration of music as a means of communication and as a vehicle for the migrations of ideas across a range of cultures throughout the world. Expanding upon this interest, in 1998, Ma established the Silk Road Project to promote the study of the cultural, artistic, and intellectual traditions along the ancient Silk Road trade route. Since the Project’s inception, more than 60 works have been commissioned speciﬁcally for the Silk Road Ensemble, which tours annually. Mr. Ma is an exclusive Sony Classical artist, and his discography of over 75 albums (including more than 15 Grammy Award winners) reﬂects his wide-ranging interests. He has made several successful recordings that defy categorization, among them Hush with Bobby McFerrin, Appalachia Waltz and Appalachian Journey with Mark O’Connor and Edgar Meyer, and albums with the Silk Road Ensemble. Ma has received numerous awards, including the Avery Fisher Prize (1978), the Glenn Gould Prize (1999), the National Medal of the Arts (2001), the Dan David Prize (2006), the Sonning Prize (2006), the World Economic Forum’s Crystal Award (2008), and the Presidential Medal of Freedom (2010). He serves as a UN Messenger of Peace and as a member of the President’s Committee on the Arts & Humanities. He has performed for eight American presidents, most recently at the invitation of President Obama on the occasion of the 56th Inaugural Ceremony. Ma and his wife have two children. He plays two instruments, a 1733 Montagnana cello from Venice and the 1712 Davidoff Stradivarius. (This biography of Yo-Yo Ma was drawn from Yo-Yo Ma’s website: www.yo-yoma.com)

MY EVERYTHING

Since I no longer have a husband, everything else has become mine: always family and friends, my house, now Perie Longo my beach, moon, hummingbird, every gopher who dines on every last root, mine – especially my field the one I’ve lived behind for forty years, the one that loves me so much, every day it combs its hair a different way, changes shirts to match my mood. A gate separates us. But I have the key to enter, roam over its strong breast whenever I choose. Some mornings my field sends a red-tail hawk flashing the sky, a pack of coyotes, noses pressed against the chain-link fence. “You’re beautiful,” I sing, charmed with their wildness, empty-handed. They skip off sideways at my advance, return for more.

Last night against the dark sky, I noticed my oak holding hands with my elm. At the center of its heart, a light pulsed from nowhere through thinning leaves. Just as you left me, ﬁeld spoke and scooped me up, my everything.

THIRST: KUWAIT POETRY WORKSHOP Humans are not our enemy – Thich Nhat Hanh

Out of the silence of writing she ﬂies to the front of the lecture hall like a raven, black swirled around her head, draped over body, a veil fastened over mouth ear to ear, her eyes mirror and shadow, beauty and anguish at once. In her hand a small scrap of paper like a sail, her words a wind that propels. She reads her poem released when I spoke of how poetry can be a road to peace, how Rumi wrote to greet every feeling as guest to the house of the heart. The veil that covers her mouth puffs in and out with each breath, a tent opening in the desert between us. She feels hidden, not heard, aches with loss, relatives murdered for war’s intolerable gain. When I ask what can I do, she tears the veil from her mouth, Say more. I have such thirst. Sand becomes water we drink and drink.

SAID

A man woke up thinking what his wife said he said or was it he said she said or each didn’t say the other said and he said I didn’t say that and she said you did you said it screaming so loud the children ran into the street neighbors shut their windows and he said you’re always twisting my words but there were no words other than said it goes on like this gathering saids to set the record straight the past stacking up like fallen boulders they could never scale unaware as soon as something is said it is ﬁnis unless she says remember when you said and he says it’s not what you think I said you misunderstood or else wanted me to mean what you imagined so you could correct me we can’t go on like this but they do all the saids etched on their faces until they don’t recognize each other and she says I hope you’re happy and he says about what
