This year, give the gift of amazing music for the holiday season: One lucky Contest Corner reader will win The Goat Rodeo Sessions featuring Yo-Yo Ma, so read on!
Are you looking for an album that is suitable for all ages and occasions? Would you like to listen to a CD that combines 4 virtuoso talents? Then The Goat Rodeo Sessions is for you. This fantastic album manages to combine bluegrass with a classical approach, featuring 4 masters in different genres: There is the famed cellist Yo-Yo Ma, mandolin player Chris Thile, bluegrass musician Stuart Duncan, and bassist Edgar Meyer. The combination of stringed instruments beautifully merges the talents of each artist to make an effort well worth a listen. Oh, and in case you’re wondering about the title – apparently a “Goat rodeo” refers to a challenging and chaotic situation where everything must fall together perfectly in order to work. Clever!
The Goat Rodeo Sessions is available in music stores and and on Amazon for $11.49.
