3rd and 4th April saw the LA Philharmonic conducted by Gustavo Dudamel along with legendary cellist Yo-Yo Ma present a special performance of John Williams’ cello concerto, and not only did the night feature selections from his vast library of cinematic music but the Maestro himself appeared to delight the crowd.

This past Thursday night, I had the privilege of attending the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s “Yo-Yo Ma, Williams & Dudamel” Concert at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. Never did I think that I would get to say this, but I fist bumped John Williams! I will never forget this amazing day. pic.twitter.com/j2arAnJQwY
