Cellist Yo-Yo Ma plays Bach along the U.S.-Mexico border

 

Legendary cellist Yo-Yo Ma performed Johann Sebastian Bach's "Suite No. 1 for Unaccompanied Cello" along the U.S.-Mexico border on Saturday as part of an event meant to celebrate the relationship between the two border cities: Laredo, Texas, and Nuevo Laredo, Mexico.

According to NPR News, the renowned cellist performed in a park in Laredo nearby the Juarez-Lincoln International Bridge, which is one of the bridges that connect the United States and Mexico.

The portions of Bach's "Suite No. 1 for Unaccompanied Cello" that Ma performed were part of his Bach Project, which uses the centuries-old classical music to explore cultural connections.

 

"As you all know, as you did and do and will do, in culture, we build bridges, not walls," Ma said Saturday, according to the publication. "I've lived my life at the borders. Between cultures. Between disciplines. Between musics. Between generations."

Sanders on millionaire status: 'I didn't know it was a crime to write a good book'

 

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on Saturday pushed back against criticism he received after saying this week that he is a millionaire.

 

"I didn't know that it was a crime to write a good book, which turned out to be a best-seller," the 2020 Democratic presidential candidate told a crowd in Gary, Ind.

 

โ€œI donโ€™t apologize for writing a book that was number three on the New York Times Best Seller [list],โ€ he added, but reiterated his belief in a "progressive tax system which demands that the wealthiest people in this country finally start paying their fair share in taxes ."

Sanders told The New York Times in a story published Tuesday that he became a millionaire because of book sales.
