In 2018 a global audience of over a billion watched him perform live at the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

His book The Power Of Music charts his creative journey, whilst his new album - his fifth release - includes recording of works by Shostakovich and Britten.

How do you manage your blood sugars when you've got TWO BILLION pairs of eyes on you?Well, if you're as focused as world-renowned cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason, it's just another day. The particular day I'm referring to is playing at the Royal Wedding of The Duke and Duchess of Sussex Harry and Meghan in 2018. As you do.Sheku is of the most celebrated and in demand cellists in the world, achieving astronomical success at the age of just 23. But in speaking to him it's clear that his motivation is purely in the act of playing and sharing his great love of music. That being said, garnering two classical BRIT awards, a GQ cover, collaborations with some of the world's most celebrated musicians and an MBE to his name while managing type 1 diabetes since the age of 12 more than deserves to be acknowledged.In this episode we discuss Sheku's life of travelling and playing, his concert rituals, how the support of his family has helped him deal with his condition, why being open about his type 1 diabetes is important - and how he strategically used to prick his fingers to avoid desensitising his playing hand before moving onto a CGM. ‘Type 1 diabetes has become less of a standout issue in my life,' he says.

Sheku Kanneh-Mason — Song (Decca) Jump to giveaway form New Classical Tracks - The Knights by “Song really speaks to the vocal quality I find in all the pieces of music that I selected for my instrument,” cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason said about expressing his artistic freedom on his latest solo recording, Song. ”The cello has such a wonderful ability to sing in all of these different styles and combinations of instruments in arranging while improvising. The cool singing quality of the cello is something I enjoy exploring. I enjoyed making this album and it is very personal for me.” Can you talk about the opening arrangement on the album? “There's something very direct about these folk melodies. I made this arrangement just for solo cello with no harmony because I wanted to just appreciate the bare bones of the melody. I just wanted to play like that. “There's so much music on this recording, which uses the cello in different ways. I wanted to start with something very pure and the sound of a solo cello line. The voice of the cello develops throughout the disc and ends with a piece of pizzicato solo cello.” What was the title of the work you arranged for your grandmother? “The title is Myfanwy and I love the expressiveness of the falling intervals.” Are you playing this trio all by yourself? “Yes. I recorded three voices of just me. It's actually harder than I thought it would be to play with myself. Normally when I'm playing with other people, I'm in the room and I can physically feel what they are doing. But when it's coming through a headphone you're playing in a slightly different experience. It was a cool way to do it.” Can you talk about the Bach work arranged for four cellos? “On that one, I was less lonely. I convinced four friends to play with me. I had my current teacher, one of my previous teachers and a couple of friends who have mentored me to join me on the album.” Can you talk about the world premiere of Edmund Finnis' Five Preludes? “I love the first prelude. There's a conversational and intimate feeling about it. The music speaks to me. I feel that I'm able to speak with it because it's music that doesn't shout out to grab your attention. Rather, it draws you into this intimate conversation. This intimacy is something that I enjoy exploring and performing.” Watch now To hear the rest of my conversation, click on the extended interview above, or download the extended podcast on iTunes or wherever you get your podcasts.

Sheku and Isata Kanneh-Mason — MUSE (Decca) Jump to giveaway form New Classical Tracks - Sheku and Isata Kanneh-Mason by British pianist Isata Kanneh-Mason and her younger brother, Cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason, have very different personalities. Perhaps, that is why they get along so well. They both have flourishing solo careers and have performed together for years, carefully developing an incredible sense of timing and trust essential for any musical duo. Their first album as a duo, Muse, features two cello sonatas, one by Samuel Barber and the other by Sergei Rachmaninoff. “We've always wanted to record together,” said Isata about working with her brother. “We've recorded pieces that we really love, especially the Rachmaninoff, which is a piece we've known since we were very small. It's really exciting to have this album and we spent a lot of time exploring and enjoying the pieces together.” How did you discover Barber's Cello Sonata? Sheku: “It's not well known at all and we discovered it recently. It was my teacher who introduced us to the piece. We both listened to it, loved it and were struck by how immediate it grips you.” Is there a section in this sonata that you each love to play? Isata: “There's many movements in both of the sonatas. I particularly enjoy playing the second movement of the Rachmaninoff and in that movement, the second subject theme. I think it is really beautiful. I just love all the textures in that movement between the instruments.” Sheku: “It's music that works so well as a whole. They're all part of an overall shape.” Isata: “Yes, one section wouldn't be as good because of the section before.” What is it about Rachmaninoff's Cello Sonata that makes it one of your favorite pieces? Sheku: “It's incredibly beautiful and poetic music. It's a wonderful piece of chamber music in the way the instruments and voices interact. It's just amazingly well crafted. It's one of the most enjoyable pieces to perform and listen to. It's filled with some incredibly great melodies. I know that it gives the cello a chance to really sing.” Can you point out your favorite melody? Sheku: “My favorite? I would say one of my favorite melodies is the second subject of the first movement. It's played first by the piano and then the cello. It's wonderful. Rachmaninoff's use of falling close intervals, rising large intervals and the painfulness of falling semitones is really powerful. Then you have these hopeful rising intervals later on in the phrase. It's such a wonderful relief. I think that's one of the most beautiful melodies and phrases.” Watch now To hear the rest of my conversation, click on the extended interview above, or download the extended podcast on iTunes or wherever you get your podcasts.

In this episode we chat about what we’ve seen and done in the last fortnight, recent classical music news, including the RPS awards, BBC Young Musician of the Year, the Royal Wedding (including a bonus phone-in chat with Royal Harpist Anne Denholm) and some surprising research involving sharks. Sharing her incredible experiences and words of wisdom this week is our special guest, bassoonist Amy Harman. And as always, we conclude with a stomach-turning weird gig of the week.
