THE  KANNEH-MASON SIBLINGS

The Kanneh-Masons are seven brothers and sisters ranging in age from 29 to 15 years old, all of whom play either violin, piano or cello. They have won many prizes and awards and appeared in numerous television shows; the five eldest performed at the Bafta awards in 2018 and all seven appeared in the December 2019 Royal Variety Show. Other shows featuring all seven include Strictly Come Dancing (2020), and Sky Arts Awards (2024). In October 2020, they released their first album Carnival on Decca Classics to great critical acclaim and in May 2021 received the Global Award for Best Classical Artist.  All the children attend or have attended London’s Royal Academy of Music and its Primary and Junior Academies, except pianist Jeneba who has progressed to London’s Royal College of Music for her undergraduate and postgraduate studies.

The family have been the subject of a number of documentaries, including CBS Sunday Morning, BBC FOUR’s Young, Gifted and Classical and, opening BBC One’s 2020 Imagine series with a uniquely produced lockdown film entitled This House is Full of Music. The family won two Royal Television Society Awards with, Christmas With the Kanneh-Masons (BBC One 2022) and The Hills Are Alive With The Kanneh-Masons (BBC Four 2023)
