Spike Jonze Presents: Lil Buck and Yo-Yo Ma

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9jghLeYufQ&w=700] "The other day, I was lucky enough to be at an event to bring the arts back into schools and got to see an amazing collaboration between Yo-Yo Ma and a young dancer in LA, Lil Buck. Someone who knows Yo-Yo Ma had seen Lil Buck on YouTube and put them together. The dancing is Lil Buck's own creation and unlike anything I've seen. Hope you enjoy." Spike Jonze
