Yo-Yo Ma, Edgar Meyer, Chris Thile And Stuart Duncan: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

Yo - Yo Ma is the best one on earth people.

This ensemble is absolutely wild. Stuart Duncan doesn’t read music, so he learns these crazy arrangements by ear. Edgar Meyer and Chris Thile write and arrange the music. And then Yo Yo Ma is newish to bluegrass and just kills it. This is musicianship and collaboration at the highest level.

Sooo good... I've been playing for 30+ years and love music almost as much as i love water... But watching beauty like this, and the souls that create it, play it, makes me wonder how we could ever have war... I know the answers.... Most... Greed, Pride, jealously... All the ramblings of the human psyche... please LOVE... NOW IS TIME ALWAYS...

We're so blessed to have such talented people willing to share their gift with everyone.

These were my favorite pieces when I was a little boy like 12 or 13 years old, now I'm near my 30. It is hard to explain how much this touches my heart.

Anything these guys play is gold. Wonderful

This video has such an uplifting effect on me. You can see how the musicians are transported. So beautiful.

Still my favorite tiny desk concert

we need a go fund me for the guy who couldnt buy the full size guitar

❤❤❤❤❤❤

i'm watching this for the first time and attaboy has just brought me to tears. it's just so wonderful

I think it speaks for itself that Chris Thile was at a Tiny desk concert 4 times.

Chris Thile, without a doubt, is in the conversation of “who are the greatest musicians to ever live?” Ever. And is most certainly the best mandolinist of all time. I don’t even think it’s up for debate at this point. Probably hasn’t been for two+ decades in my humble opinion. Mad love and prayers from Tennessee. 💪🏼🧡🇺🇸

Depression relief. With our without food.

This is by Far the Best TinyDesk…

I challenge somebody to Top this

so great!

Edgar Meyer - Unfolding.

You're welcome. ;)

Many people think they have to be rich to hear him. I'm not...he plays for us. A difficult instrument...we wish we could master.

It may be complex that's why he is brilliant...this gift is due to Hard work...

That moment when Chris said meditation stuff

Perfect ❤

We need more, folks. This music...the care you take in playing, the compositions that approach a pseudo-classical mode, the very value of your own stuff you bring...We need more, lots more!

Attaboy always makes me think of and feel autumn. Not sure why but it just has always had that "Harvest Festival" feel to me.

Never heard of him..i jus click on npr...

Each adds to the pleasure, uncontained........

This is a pretty good reason for humanity to keep on going, if for any reason they wanted to stop :P

What do you say to that .. 🤔 world class? The finest? Unbelievable? How many superlatives can capture this greatness ..

Their ability to match notes is absurdly cool

Chris looks like he's constantly running late to work and he just happened to run into a Tiny Desk Concert where had to play a couple songs quickly to get back on the bus he's going to miss

If there's anything musically could bring a smile on my face these days; this is it. Thank you NPR Tiny Desk!

Freaking cool. Just jamming with each other! Definitely discovered something new today and it was not a bad thing...!

Wow. It gets better everytime I am listening and my brain learns to understand this music and to connect the dots.
Thank you. May you all be blessed.

Everyone fawning over Chris when Edgar and Yo Yo Mas discographies are deeper and wider.Typical fan boy musical ignorance.

The acoustics are so sweet. Fantastic musicians . . .

It would be a special moment just to be in the same room, even without being invited to play with them.

So good. Speechless.

that was the ugliest so called music I have ever heard.

I feel like I'm in the Shire.
