Sheku Kanneh-Mason, the record-breaking 19 year-old British cellist who became a viral sensation after being personally invited by the Duchess of Sussex to perform at Royal Wedding in May 2018. He previously rose to fame as the first black musician to win BBC Young Musician in 2016 and winner of The Times South Bank Breakthrough award 2017. Performing regularly as a soloist and twice at the BAFTA awards, Sheku’s debut album ‘Inspiration’ was released early 2018.
Sheku’s version of Bob Marley’s ‘No Woman, No Cry’ went viral worldwide and he became the first BBC Young Musician winner to enter the Official UK Albums Chart with a debut recording, as well as the youngest cellist ever to reach the Top 20. He is one of this year’s biggest breakthrough artists - across any genre.
Sheku has been on a whirlwind adventure since winning BBC Young Musician 2016 - performing Leonard Cohen’s ‘Hallelujah’ at the BAFTAs in front of Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, playing at 10 Downing Street as part of the 30th anniversary of Black History Month, and making his BBC Proms debut as a soloist with Chineke! - Europe’s first majority BME (black and minority ethnic) orchestra - with the video of his performance going viral. He now studies at the Royal Academy of Music in London.

A thousand boy kisses by tillie Cole brought me here. Just wooooow 😩❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
SAME
a thousand boy kisses brought me here🖤
Me too
same ❤
I wish people were more aware and grateful to classical music. You guys were awesome, this is one of my most favorite pieces.
I know, all people care about these are rap songs, full of cursing. I am 12 years old, and people in my class think classical music is really stupid, and when I say I like the songs, they all look at me like I'm out of my mind. People these days, honestly.
ps. I'm not saying that rap songs are bad, I'm just saying classical music is so much better in my opinion, just before I get any hate.
@@sulafallam2569 you say 'people these days' as if you have the knowledge of another generation, yet you tell us you are 12 years old
Twelve you say 🤔
Piano Weeb no N n.
@@jackycal sorry to butt in, but I think he meant that the people in his class all listen to rap...
A thousand boy kisses brought me here ✨
Currently reading ‘A thousand boy kisses’ and came across this piece when Poppy mentioned it, and man the great epiphany that dawned on me when I realized that this was my favorite pieces of all time and that I just never knew the name of it. Reading how Poppy won’t be able to peruse her passion is saddening but she taught me a lot of moral things. That’s what makes the love story in this so special.
I’m here because of poppy too🥹🥹🥹my heart is broken, I’m on the page of her performing in the hall in NYC
@@teddykhoeses2780 omg I cried at that part so hard 😭
@@teddykhoeses2780Same I’m on that part too 😭 I looked it up and listened to it as I read. I’ve never heard it before
Same. Had to hear the song she played. 😢
Same!!!!!🥺🫶
That’s my cello teacher sitting next to him!
Gi Aww admire you
👍
Nice
So cool.
Cool!
Musicians like Sheku come around once in a hundred years or so......he’s an icon......he’s so young. How can he get any better as he ages? Of course he will....... but right now it feels like we’re listening to perfection. What’s better than this, may l ask? This is magnificence personified.......💙💙💙💙💙
A hundred years ? Who was the one before Sheku?
@@revsolution Pablo Casals from Puerto Rico
@@ursulabean3179 I don't know. I was thinking of musicians in a more general sense. Ever heard of Alma Deutscher?
@@revsolution
Yes indeed
Little British genius
Composer and performer- a phenom for sure!!
I love classical music
Probably one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.
Of all the cellists I have heard play this gorgeous piece, Sheku Kanneh-Mason’s performance touches my heart the most! 😭❤️ such feeling!!
God The Almighty certainly gave you a gift ...... use it for his Glory dude ❤❤❤❤❤
Karen Blackburn - Amen, so true.
A master performance,pure poetry.
The most beautiful and moving rendition of this I have ever heard, and I have been around many years now and heard many different people play this.
Same here. Sheku brings me to tears with everything he plays!
ok
There is this delicacy/fragility in his playing that is enchanting.
@@s.c.1494 Yep, he plays it with emotions, not like a machine, but he also doesn't overexaggerate anything. He is playing on a sweet spot that just sounds heavenly.
I'm holding my breath while listening. So beautiful.
Shichao Wang me too! really beautiful.
Try not to die
I feel you. I'm holding back tears.
Another interpretation I put at the same level as Yo-Yo Ma's. Fanstastic!
Personally I like sheku better
My dad sent me this video to me when I was playing this song. That's when i started hearing Sheku play other songs like Sicilienne which I'm starting now. He is such a special man, amazing man, talented, I wish he could be more famous as a classical musician.
Yes, even though most people don't appreciate this kind of music it will alwase be there in the hearts of people like you and me 💕💕💕🎻🎻🎻🎼🎼🎼🎼
I see God in you. Blessed musician and your siblings.
Rahel T Rocca this
Amen.
The god of music is named Apollo
The beautiful expressions he holds while playing make you feel the way his music conducts his emotions, how music vibrates inside his whole body. This is pure love. ✨
Pitch Perfect
Mesmerizingly beautiful
discovered this extaordinary gifted cellist watching Royal Wedding
I have this in my head all day.....
Thank goodness every generation produces masters in various fields. How pleased I am to witness this young master.
This sound sad, beautiful and happy and the same time. This now my favourite pieces
This young genius is not just talented BU very spiritual. OMG!
An inspiration. For many years, I couldn't listen to classical cello playing. It would actually cause me emotional pain, as I dealt with serious depression studying it. However, I have begun to have joy since discovering this artist. :)
God just wants a relationship with u and to help u in the hardships of life. Accept that free gift today and accept Him into your life today❤
Have a wonderful day
I will never get tired of this song. No matter how many times I hear this, it'll still be just like the first time i heard this.
Moved me to tears. Bravo.

The perfect song to finish the day..
He makes Love to the Cello. Absolutely beautiful to listen and watch
Terrifically talented.
This music was truly heaven sent, through the tender soul of an extraordinary talented young man. Divine, ageless and awesome. Thank God for him in our world.
I have always wanted to play the cello so bad this made me cry
This is so beautiful. God bless you all. The Lords beauty is over all the earth. And this is an example of his mercy to us. We get to hear this and see the giftedness of this young man. The Lord loves the world so much He gave us Jesus. John 3:16

This piece has traditionally been performed at a slower tempo, but I thoroughly enjoyed this rendition. Greatest young cellist in the world today.
His playing is very beautiful and moving
WOW this is one of the most intense and moving renditions of this song! well played.
What a beautiful sound..
I know nothing about classical music..
I know I like this..
Before he started to play I got chills
Wow, this guy is so great!!! Amazing that he's so young too!
He hits that high D perfectly...I think I have found a new cello inspiration
WOW!!!
Adore that variation
To my mind one of the greatest pieces of music ever written, and played very very well.
For me, one of the better versions! I listened in spotify and found it here
This piece is my favorite.. I just feel more in love with it.. I’m a new cellist (37yo) and this is my goal piece
I wish you good luck! I'm practicing it right know ;) greetings from a german cellist

The smile at the end :)
Sheku is a new star on my horizon.
Great celloist!!! ❤
Literal masterpiece
Breathtakingly lovely. Sheku you make the cello into a living, breathing thing that sings and cries and purrs.
Breath taking.
Tears. So very beautiful. Thank you Mr and Mrs Kanneh-Mason, for the gift of your stunningly beautiful and talented children.
Absolutely beautiful!!
My best friend sagen brought me here he is amazing!!!!!!
I just have to comment again on this video. This cellist is supernatural. I've watched this several times and I just got shivers again. What a pleasure to watch a musician being in the 'zone'.
I felt every string played out of love and emotion written on his face....
Just amazing !!!
This is absolutely majestic❤️ there's godliness in your renditions❤️💜💙
How does it sounds soo beautifull
I need to cry
I often listen to clasic music when im doing workouts but this one is just WOW😭😍
Big Musician playing the first cello but whats even more interesting to me: incredible arrangement!
My beloved piece
my soul delights!!!
What can I say this has left me speechless.
A marvelous, moving performance of such a well known piece.. beautiful, evocative. Love it.
WOW !!! He is really talented !!! Absolutely stunning !!! My most favourite is Joshua Bell's version ( violin ) & Hauser the next & then Yo Yo Ma ..I thought ! But , now he is on the 2nd place neck to neck w/ Hauser's version ! I wanted to go to his concert this past spring , but because of this corona ,covid 19 lockdown I couldn't ! But, I'd really love to see his live performance in the near future ! He is SENSATIONAL !!!😍😍😻👍👍👍💜💜💜🥁🎵🐉🎤🎶🎻💖💕💞
So beautiful.
Absolutely one of the most beautiful, breathtaking renditions of this fantastic masterpiece!!! Truly a work of musical Art! And.... my precious daughter, Danielle, is using this magnificent piece as her bridal procession! She has always been my “swan” and her fiancé, who use to be a cellist, will now see her beautiful vision, “gliding” down the aisle to take his hand in marriage.... it could not be more perfect! Ahhhh L’amour.... 💕
So beautiful. ❤
I heard this on Spotify and I HAD to find this on CZcams. I love this so much!
Beautiful humility wrapped in greatness. ❤️ What it means to be an artist.
Preciosisimoo❤
The world needs to see more of Sheku!
Ever so soothing.
Talent beyond his years.
