The Culture House is delighted to announce that it is to bring Classical goes Pop! to the Grimsby Auditorium (previously to be held at Meridian Park). Joining sinfonia ViVA will be special guest tenor Jonathan Ansell of G4 fame.

The programme is a fabulous celebration of popular classics right from the start, combining the joyous energy of Copland and Strauss with a sparkling selection from the fabulous Great American Songbook, three modern anthems by Freddie Mercury and through to a wealth of patriotic music befitting this Jubilee year. Add to this fabulous vocals from the incomparable Jonathan Ansell and you have a gem of a concert to enjoy and remember!
