About "Symphony No. 6 in F Major, Op. 68, "Pastorale": I. Allegro ma non troppo, "Awakening of cheerful feelings on arriving in the count" by Yo Yo Ma
Beethoven's Pastorale awakens not with folk simplicity but with a chamber trio's intimate conversation. Yo-Yo Ma's cello is a traveler arriving at a sunlit meadow—cheerful, yes, but with an undercurrent of awe. The calm is earned, not assumed.
