Abstract

(Bloomberg) -- Cellist Yo-Yo Ma's upcoming concert in Hong Kong is in such high demand that scalpers are charging more than $2,200 for a ticket, similar to the resale value of those for Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. Ma will be performing with Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra Music Director Jaap van Zweden and the 90-minute concert will open with Beethoven's Leonore Overture No. 3. On US-based tickets resale platform Viagogo, entry to Ma's performance on Nov. 8 costs as much as $2,206 - almost nine times the highest price of a ticket sold by the concert organizer.
