I absolutely loved this Yo Yo, your music is a must when I'm writing poetry. Check some of my poems out at http://poemti.me

This is my second Yo-Yo Ma’s CD, the first one “Obrigado Brazil”which to be honest, I was bias when I bought it, after reading the very exquisite selection of traditional Brazilian music (from 1930-1940s). But with this one, I’m in total disbelieve, I had never thought I could ever, by free choice, buy this type of musical genre. All happened this Fall while having a cup of coffee with my love at Starbuck’s patio and this smooth sound was coming out of speakers…and as twinkle lights…the Cello was entering into melodic ears. The melody “Quarter Chicken Dark” would surprisingly stimulate your sensual imagination.

I have just about every cd of Yo Yo's, but I think this is now my favorite. It is the synergy that totally excites me. Paradoxically, it touches me deeply -- in the most playful way. I keep playing it and yet do not want to kill it by overdoing it. I would love to see some dance choreography with several of the pieces. Brilliant -- Yo Yo, Stuart, Edgar, Chris, and Aoife!

After seeing a selection from Goat Rodeo Sessions performed on The Colbert Report, I ordered the CD the following day. I have not purchased a CD in a long time, but this musical endeavor is so new, intriguing, and exciting, I just had to have it. My husband was a musician with music being central to our 47 years of marriage. He passed away a little over a year ago leaving me unable to listen to music because it made me so sad. After listening to this beautiful, complex mix of classical and bluegrass music, the joy of music has been returned to me. Thank you for restoring something so precious to my life.

Just saw them perform on the Colbert Report on dvr. Phenomenal musicianship. "Attaboy" is a joy to "behold". Mmm...

I have just heard the group play on Stephen Cobert's show. If it was not one AM right now, I would run to the store and buy a copy !!!
Now THAT'S my kind of Bluegrass. Bravo ! I cannot beleive YoYo Ma's musical versatility ! Talk about open mindness !! Thank you, Rodeo gang, for taking us with you on your incredible musical journey !

ditto on the Fox and Friends broadcast. Talk about Synchronicity, I just finished reading a book called "The Music Lesson" by Victor Wooten, because the main character of this book, Victor himself, is made aware of the beauty of music, no matter what the genre, that being Bluegrass, which Victor was never a listener of. I just had to buy this CD/DVD. That and because the Rodeo gang had a very likable Alison Krauss & Union Station sound to it, which is a style of Bluegrass i DO enjoy. Looking forward to the CD/DVD and this book should be in every middle, high school and university in the country. It way more than just about music.

I saw the performance of Goat Rodeo on the Fox News network this morning and immediately bought the CD,DVD, and GR Tote Bag for my wife. The music is fantastic, the synergy between the artists is fantastic but what's more important, my wife is very happy with me now! I recommend this album to everyone.
