The Goat Rodeo Sessions

This week's music journal focused on a bluegrass collaboration between four virtuoso musicians. The Goat Rodeo Sessions is the name of the collaboration featuring Chris Thile (mandolin), Stuart Duncan (fiddle), Edgar Meyer (upright bass), and Yo-Yo Ma (cello). Thile and Ma are both very famous in the music industry, as both were regarded as child prodigies on their respective instruments. This collaboration resulted in an album under the name of Goat Rodeo Sessions, featuring the song "Attaboy," which is what the students listened to and watched in class. Below is the link to the live recording session of the song:
