This program is a marvel. Thank goodness Britain has the common sense to have its young people be able to compete in a competition like this with one another, but at the same time, learn and enjoy the experience and go on to perform all over the world. Sheku Is one who l have followed ever since seeing his marvelous talent during the wedding of Prince Harry. Well done everyone, well done the BBC! Keeps this going forever….
The parents. The parents.. See a mother calling her children for tea, see them supporting their children. See the love, support and unity between them. Watch the parents. They deserve much admiration.
"Young people are in touch with the unfathomable." Wow, yes, that's a great way to out it. Sheku's rendition of the Shostakovich concerto blows me away. I'm simply overcome with a whole transport of emotions when I hear him play it. Rostropovich would be delighted.
The whole family is extremely talented. The genre of classical music is lost to many a young person. This family breathes new life into timeless works of music. May God watch over the whole family.
What a magnificent docudrama on the history of the BBC Young Musician of the year competition. Thoroughly enjoyed watching each winner and hearing about their musical journeys. Well done.
Such a special moment in time.... Just listening and beholding their genius inspires me to do more and be more... What Talents they are! And so very young, beautiful, and alive. To God be the glory!
Thankyou for such a wonderful programme. Very emotional too. I have followed YM for many years and get so much joy from experiencing such talented young musicians.
What an interesting programme. Thanks for sharing! I really enjoyed watching this, and to be reminded how many of today’s established performers were first recognised through BBC YM. It’s great to see the opportunities that have opened up for Ben and Jess, as well as Sheku. Best wishes to all the 2018 participants! PS. It was wonderful to hear Sheku play in Worthing in March.
What we can learn from this is the degree of support and appreciation we all would like to receive - the flip side of this being that we would all benefit by giving it to each other. All the young musicians featured demonstrated enthusiasm for creating opportunity for new talent to shine. Music has a way of reaching places which can remain tightly closed to other forms of communication, but hidden talent desperate to be expressed needs its openings whether it's musical or some other talent. Psychologically beating young talent down destroys opportunities, ruins relationships, and leads to social problems on a global scale, including the divisions so typical now within most communities, and expressed world-wide as hatred and conflict. Lifting young talent up, demonstrating acceptance of those we see as somehow different from ourselves, shelving our own agenda by observing and listening to those we intend support and inspire, instead of imposing our own ideas. The trend for a long time has been for adults to tell children what to do, how to behave, what they need to learn. Reversing this approach opens doors, changes lives, and teaches us that our listening is far more important than making ourselves heard. We become heard when we listen, not when we charge in with our speaking. Above all, these brilliant young performers are listeners. We feel so blessed to hear them because of their humility and generosity. Every one of us who stops to listen to those around us, makes a contribution to changing individual lives and to changing the world for the better. My deep thanks to all of you for the part you play in healing the world.🙏 🙏 🙏
God we need a version of this in the States, but we'd end up making it more about the backstory than the actual performances though, or make then do a physical challenge first. We musically need help over here, desperately.....and I am BEYOND ecstatic that I am seeing Sheku & Isata in concert in a few weeks.
For God's,sake why doesn't classical music move on all orchestras are just posh covers bands. Playing covers of long past composers. Where is the new stuff where are the new composers . I wish for the day when they can play without the music and from the heart. And don't say it's too hard .bored with the lack of progress same old stuff for nearly 300 years
Do you not know how the internet works? Theres tons of that, just need to find it. And it's also good to learn from the greats first. These are still just kids.

Beautiful moment with Queen Elizabeth. Much-Love. The performance was epic!
What a privilege to witness these marvellous souls giving everything. I'm both ecstatic and hurting. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

A wonderful experience to see the YMA through its 40 years - a phenomenal variety of talented artists. 😃👌👌👌👌
Conspicuous by her absence, winner in 1990, the wonderful Nicola Loud !
Only the required...Much-Love.
A truly amazing family.
In Britannia alot of people grow up like this..surrounded by music,chess and sciences..but especially where the parents are fully involved.
Excellent documentary.
