Inspired By Bach presents Yo-Yo Ma in six artistic collaborations with Kabuki artist Tamasaburo Bando, garden designer Julie Moir Messervy, choreographer Mark Morris, and many others. These musical interpretations explore the passion and transformative power of J.S. Bach's Solo Cello Suites. "Falling Down Stairs" features Bach's "Suite No. 3 for Unaccompanied Cello." Although he knew the music well, Mark Morris had never thought to choreograph a dance based on Bach's "Third Suite." But through a close collaboration with Yo-Yo Ma, an astonishing dance emerges between musician, dancers and filmmaker Barbara Willis Sweete. "Sarabande" features Bach's "Suite No. 4 for Unaccompanied Cello." This dramatic film from director Atom Egoyan explores a number of relationships revealing the generosity of spirit and love that flow from Yo-Yo Ma's performance. Falling Down Stairs follows an intense year-long collaboration between Yo-Yo Ma and choreographer Mark Morris, which culminates in a spectacular performance, conceived especially for film, of J. S. Bach's Suite No. 3 for Unaccompanied Cello as interpreted by Yo-Yo Ma and the 14-member Mark Morris Dance Group. The film shows the intimacy, soul-searching and humor involved in the creative process, as Yo-Yo and Mark struggle to create a completely new work that can live up to the title "Inspired by Bach."
