Sheku: 'Anyone can fall in love with classical music'
Sheku Kanneh-Mason made history in 2016 when he became the first black winner of the Âé¶¹Éç Young Musician competition and he has now released his debut album 'Inspiration'.
Speaking to 5 live's Sarah Brett he said that there is a lack of diversity within classical music and that more young people should get to experience it. He said "I think anyone can fall in love with this type of music and relate to this type of music if they're given the opportunity to hear it and see it live".
