Yo-Yo Ma Finally Works Up Courage To Tell Parents He Quitting Cello
CAMBRIDGE, MA—Taking a deep breath and straightening his back, Yo-Yo Ma finally worked up the courage to tell his parents that he was quitting cello, sources confirmed Friday. “Mom, Dad, this is it—I quit,” said Ma, who exhaled and then winced as his parents immediately reacted to the consequential words by simultaneously exclaiming “But you love cello!” and “Is this a joke?” “You always say I love cello, but that’s not true. You guys love cello. I hate cello. If there was any instrument I wanted to play at all it would probably be the drums. Please, please just let me speak. I’m done. No, I won’t give it ‘just a few more decades.’” At press time, Ma was reportedly back in his bedroom practicing cello after being chewed out by his parents.
