The sibling duo of Sheku and Isata Kanneh-Mason return to Ann Arbor for a recital to close out the 2021/22 season.
The Kanneh-Masons, who performed in Rackham Auditorium to a sold-out crowd in December 2019, also performed, along with their five siblings, in twice-weekly livestreams from their home in Nottingham to hundreds of thousands of people around the globe during the COVID lockdown. Sheku is passionate about the importance of making classical music accessible to all and serves as an ambassador for several UK-based music education charities.
Note: This performance has moved from Rackham Auditorium to Hill Auditorium.
