Mum says cello-playing son ‘will be a somebody’

A mother who describes herself as a “nobody” believes passionately that her teenage son will be a “somebody” when he becomes a professional cellist.

Jane Lamcellari appealed via RTÉ’s Ryan Tubridy Show for support for her son’s training at the Royal Academy of Music, London.

Jayden Lamcellari attends the academy every week. Britain’s oldest conservatoire has waived its fees to help him realise his full potential.
