his name is shaikh who kind of mason and it is in fact his first time with the zurich tone how the orchestra it's a rehearsal for his first concert in switzerland he'll be playing dmitri shostakovich is cello concerto number one. and. just a few bars and it's obvious this is not just any young conservatory musician. she could kind of mason jumps right into one of the most technically difficult pieces for the cello. for the first time i had this concert i was on you tube i was watching a video of mission icici playing it. my teacher told me to because i never had

a fad of this piece this was when i was about. fourteen fifteen i think this piece goes through such a huge range of emotions and colors from. really letting me. feeding this team or mice kind of screaming and lots of stockhausen yeah it's just full of. everything really and i think that's why. both paying and listen to it come be quite i mention. the very same cello concerto gave kind amazing his greatest success to date in twenty sixteen when he won the b.b.c. young musician competition. the award helped to launch his career. it all started back home with his family. who was the third of seven children all

of the musicians. and. it was their parents who made sure that music would become a natural part of their daily lives in spite of a tight budget and a lack of mentors. i always loved classical music because i grew up listening to it and i never saw. my background as kind of obstacle in it but i think there is definitely. a massive lack of diversity and i think one of the main reasons for that is if you are young . a person from an ethnic minority background and. would rarely sees someone

who looks like he performing on a stage and that's something that. i have to change and i hope for young children to see what i'm doing and to see how it is because something cool that. she could kind of mason break free from the cliches of the world of classical music in zurich conductor howard griffiths sat in on a dress rehearsal. he keeps an eye out for talented young musicians for your freedom foundation. is imaginative or say he's a very imaginative musician who is brimming with emotion that's the victim to ike that's the most important trait for an artist to be able to bring feelings across because east i think it's a gift that not every cellist or musician has had it in music i don't and to have that gift at this age is really something special in the lungs of

a sort of very slow movement seek and find something to tell and we the audience can hear the tale says and that's what's most important. she could kind of mason grabs his listener's attention after the concert he signed one cd after another in february his debut album inspiration made number one on britain's classical music charts he's a young talent with much to offer and the potential to set a shining example for other musicians in the future. hour that we wrap up today. so before we go we want to let you weigh in on this week's contest now we
