The Colbert Report: Yo-Yo Ma Interview & Performance

I always try to watch The Daily Show and occasionally watch The Colbert Report from beginning-to-end. The other day, I was surprised, given the election season, that Stephen Colbert was interviewing the world famous cello master Yo-Yo Ma. Even if you are not into classical music, I’m sure you’ve heard of him – which is pretty amazing. I’m not sure I know of any famous violinists offhand. I guess “Yo-Yo” is a pretty easy name to remember! This was one strange interview – well, almost any interview with Stephen Colbert is going to be fairly non-standard! Below is his performance on the show.
