The Symphonic Sounds of Back to Basics with Opera Theatre & Performing Arts

A new live music spectacular will see classic club dancefloor anthems reimagined and performed in a unique and contemporary way on Millenniu

The production team responsible for creating this spectacular show are renowned songwriter and producer Steve Anderson, who has been musical director for Kylie Minogue for over 20 years, and whose credits include Paul McCartney, Take That and Leona Lewis - and Cliff Masterson, who has worked as conductor and arranger for artists including Emeli Sandé, Little Mix and Katherine Jenkins. Together they curated the sell-out Lush Classics concerts in Belfast, produced the music for the opening of the Commonwealth Games, Glasgow (2014) and composed original music for the London Olympics (2012).

Steve Anderson said: “Cliff and I are so honoured to be working with the incredible Orchestra of Opera North in such a beautiful setting. Our new, expanded arrangements of club classics will bring back some very special memories for anyone who’s ever danced, made friends or fallen in love at the legendary Back to Basics”.

The evening will also include special guest appearances from well-known club artists and long-time friends of Back to Basics: Adamski, Robert Owens, A Man called Adam and The Beloved with more star guests still to be announced.

Dave Beer, founder and owner of Back to Basics said: “I'm really excited about this event and it's a privilege to be working alongside Opera North and their amazing orchestra. Music has always been my life and I've devoted the biggest part of it to bringing music to the city that I love. I'm so proud that Leeds City Council recognises our contribution to the city over the past 25 years and is honouring us in this way.
