SHE MAY be part of classical music royalty but Isata Kanneh-Mason says that there is no rivalry among her six siblings... unless they are playing board games.
The famous pianist, who regularly performs with her younger brothers and sisters, also reveals she now dreams of branching out and performing with rapper Stormzy.
The 26-year-old can practise six hours a day to ensure she remains at the top of her profession.
Currently on a solo tour taking in Europe and North America, she is also part of the Kanneh-Mason Trio alongside her brother, world-renowned cellist Sheku, who played at the wedding service for Prince Harry and Meghan. Completing the trio is violinist brother Braimah.
They will be performing at the Henley Festival this summer.
Opening up about the family dynamics between the siblings, aged from 13 up, Isata said: “We’re not competitive when it comes to music, because we’re different ages. We’ve had to just help each other.
“But we are really competitive in board games and stuff like that. We play Monopoly and Scrabble but our biggest one is actually an anagrams board game, which is like this crazy word game and we get very competitive over that.
“I like to win, of course – we all like to win so it’s the same mindset for everyone.”
