As Midday on the Arts continues, Tom's next guests are a brother and sister classical music duo who are part of a large family of talented musicians. Sheku Kanneh-Mason is a cellist who shot to fame when he was invited to play at the wedding of Prince Harry and Megan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. His sister, Isata Kanneh-Mason is an award-winning pianist, who, like her brother, plays concerts all over the world.
They are currently touring together, and they’ll be playing in Baltimore Sunday night. Here’s a sample of their beautiful artistry from their first CD as a duo, Muse, performing Samuel Barber's Sure on This Shining Night.
Cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason and pianist Isata Kanneh-Mason join Tom on Zoom from their tour venue in Kansas City, Missouri.
Sheku and Isata Kanneh-Mason are performing Sunday night at Shriver Hall, on the campus of Johns Hopkins University. The concert starts at 5:30. For program and ticketing information, click here.
