Sheku Kanneh-Mason, the 19-year-old British cello virtuoso who nailed it at the royal wedding, will perform with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra in 2019.

He will play  in performances at Atlanta Symphony Hall next April 25 and April 27 in the "Elgar Cello Concerto at 100" series. Uruguayan maestro Carlos Kalmar returns to conduct the Elgar, Schumann's Second Symphony, and a rarely heard overture by Sir Arthur Sullivan of Gilbert and Sullivan fame.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry asked the young musician to play at their wedding.
