Cleveland Orchestra / Sheku Kanneh-Mason (11/4/21)

While I work right next to Severance Hall, its beauty always delights when I’m able to go inside for a performance - and it’s been quite awhile.  The Cleveland Orchestra, along with Sheku Kanneh-Mason, performed Coleridge-Taylor’s Ballade in A minor, Elgar’s Cello Concert in E minor, and Dvorak’s Symphony No. 6 in D major. However i’ll let those over at Bachtrack do the a proper review… but here was my favorite part of his performance:

"As an encore, Kanneh-Mason played his own wistful arrangement of the Chicago Klezmer Ensemble’s Mazltov Far Di Mekhutonim, which showed off the performer’s talent for whistling, self-accompanied on cello. It was haunting. Kanneh-Mason is supremely talented, with the promise of a very successful career, and he had a rapturous reception here in Cleveland."

(Via Sheku Kanneh-Mason makes highly successful debut with The Cleveland Orchestra | Bachtrack.)
