´óÏó´«Ã½ Symphony Orchestra
Jules Buckley conductor

A dynamic meeting of musical cultures as conductor Jules Buckley brings together the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Symphony Orchestra with leading performers from the UK’s vibrant urban music scene. In Urban Classic’s experimental fusion of musical styles, high-octane orchestral showpieces by Mosolov and Henze rub shoulders with rap, R&B and soul. ‘It’s a culture clash,’ says Jules Buckley. ‘We’re taking artists from different worlds and messing with their music, putting it in an orchestral context and exploring it in a new way.
