The Power of Music
Sheku Kanneh-Mason
Cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason knows and feels the transformative power of music as much as any musician alive. From winning the prestigious BBC Young Musician Award to performing at Harry and Meghan's wedding; from Bach's solo suites to Bob Marley's reggae; his ferocious passion shines through in every single performance, whether in a packed-out concert hall or on record. But how was it that someone like him - a person of colour, from a state school in Nottingham - rose to the upper echelons of the classical music world? What were the obstacles that he had to overcome, what did he learn along the way, and how could a young person follow in his footsteps today? In this book, Sheku explores the experiences and values that led him here, from a childhood of football practice and family music sessions, to his work today in the world's finest concert halls and in the less privileged communities that surround them.
