The Silk Road Ensemble was formed by Yo-Yo Ma in 2000 (he's the cellist in the clip). The performers come from over 20 countries, including Iran, the U.S., Lebanon, Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Russia. They combine instruments and musical styles from different cultures across the globe, the result of which is unique, entertaining, and very well done. Each of them has mastered their instrument, and they join together into something really amazing. Don't be scared away by the length of the songs; they're worth their while. Enjoy!
They are just so flippin good at what they do.
