Yo-Yo Ma, one of history’s most cherished cellists, makes his third and final stop of a short Florida run to help raise money for The Florida Orchestra.

Expect the 69-year-old to bring a special brand of emotional depth and precision to this performance of Richard Strauss’ famed tone poem “Don Juan,” from its opening flourish and through the piece’s sweeping horns and tender oboe passages.

Tickets to see Yo-Yo Ma with The Florida Orchestra at Ruth Eckerd Hall in Clearwater on Friday, Feb. 28 are still available and start at $75.
