NextImg:No serenades for Air Canada after denying seat to $4.5M cello bound for Toronto concert

There will be no cello serenades for Air Canada by U.K-based cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason any time soon.

He and his piano-playing sister, Isata, were on their way to perform to a packed house at Toronto’s Koerner Hall on Dec. 11, when Kanneh-Mason was told his cello could not come  on the trip, even though he had purchased a seat for it.

Kanneh-Mason’s cello is more than 300 years old, built around 1700 by famous Venetian luthier, Matteo Goffriller. The instrument has an estimated worth of more than $4.5 million.
