Yoyo Ma has just made an astounding annoucement on NPR (National Public Radio).  The beloved cellist has decided upon a career change. 

He will take up the accordion professionally.

He told AP reporter Nacny Kwong that "the cello isn't fullfilling my inner needs anymore, I need to be more diverse."

His decision has caught many by suprise, but all wish him well in his new endevors.
