Many of the world’s leading cellists will play a tribute to the late Lynn Harrell on May 21 at 2:00pm NY time on the Carnegie Hall feed.

Those taking part include Yo-Yo Ma, Mischa Maisky, Gautier Capucon, Daniel Müller-Schott, Alisa Weilerstein, Alban Gerhardt, Christian Poltera, Sheku Kanneh-Mason, Zlatomir Fung, Johannes Moser, and Jan Vogler, who is pulling it all together

The plan is to perform Klengel’s Hymnus for 12 cellos, a movement of Villa-Lobos’ Bachianas Brasilieras No. 1, and the Popper Requiem.

The episode will be streamed on the hall’s website, Facebook and YouTube.

Lovely gesture.
