Season Opening with Sheku
Musical fireworks from Carmen to Boléro, with world-class cellist Sheku as the grand finale.
Ten years ago, Sheku Kanneh-Mason was the sensational winner of the BBC Young Musician Award. He has since grown into one of the most brilliant cellists of our time. ‘Energy, precision, imagination… a breathtaking performance,’ wrote The Times recently in a five-star review. In this season opener full of musical fireworks, he is the crowning glory.
