Yo-Yo Ma and The Silk Road Ensemble at the 2002 Smithsonian Folklife Festival on Central Asia
I think it's undeniable that the first two minutes of this video swing; not in a completely conventional dotted-eighth sixteen-note sort of way, but give a listen and try not to move.
And while you're busy moving, remind yourself that The Silk Road Ensemble will be coming to Symphony Hall with Yo-Yo Ma for two performances each with a different program in March 2008-2009. Subscriptions are on sale now. Individual ticket sales begin September 8.
