This summer’s Classic Ibiza tour has started and the concert returns to Hertfordshire next month.
Ever wondered what house music sounds like when it’s performed live by a 32-piece orchestra? Well, here’s your chance to find out… for free!
Classic Ibiza returns to Hatfield House on Saturday, August 17, and we’re giving four lucky readers the chance to win a pair of tickets to this family-friendly show.
Headlining the five-hour concert is Urban Soul Orchestra, known for collaborating with the likes of Groove Armada, Nightmares on Wax and Robert Miles.
They’ll be reinventing the most iconic dance tracks from the last 30 years with live vocalists and DJ Goldierocks.
The USO’s set of more than 40 house classics includes 16 completely new orchestrations and some firm Classic Ibiza favourites.
Among the incredible tracks set to be performed are Unfinished Sympathy (Massive Attack), Missing (Everything But The Girl), We Come 1 (Faithless), Children (Robert Miles), Insomnia (Faithless), Breathe (The Prodigy), Space Cowboy (Jamiroquai), Pump Up The Jam (Technotronic), Superstylin’ (Groove Armada), The Key, The Secret (Urban Cookie Collective), I’m Not Alone (Calvin Harris), and Freed From Desire (Gala).
The concert then reaches a rapturous crescendo at 10.30pm, following a three-track encore.
