Steve and Yo-Yo Ma

[Dr Kevorkian94]

Im sure many of you have read Steve's biography, witch is great by the way. I just got up to the part in the novel where it explains Steve's relationship with Yo-Yo Ma (the quite amazing Celloist). And the last sentence says that jobs made him promise that he would play at his funeral. That for me thinking I wonder If he actually did. Thoughts?

Apparently he did.

He played at the private tribute to Jobs. From AppleInsider:

Another, more private tribute to Jobs was held on Sunday at Stanford Memorial Church, attended by Apple executives, family, friends and dignitaries, including former U.S. President Bill Clinton. It also included performances from cellist Yo Yo Ma, singer Joan Baez, and U2 frontman Bono.

Oh that's nice, That was listed on apples site for a while but I don't recall seeing Ma. Also I sort of took it literally, like literally at the funeral, thats just me though.

He didn't play at the tribute at Apple's campus which Apple later released to the public. He played at a private memorial as described above.
