Our Take

Ah, the 80s - a decade known for big hair, bold fashion choices, and of course, some truly iconic music. So what happens when you take the synth-pop hits of artists like Nik Kershaw, Johnny Hates Jazz, and Carol Decker and combine them with the grandeur of an orchestra? Well, the answer can be found in "80s Classical: Vol. 1" featuring these artists performing with the Orchestra of Opera North.

At first glance, the concept of 80s classics getting the classical treatment seems a bit bonkers. But trust me, it works. From the soaring strings of Nik Kershaw's "Wouldn't It Be Good" to the majestic brass of Johnny Hates Jazz's "Shattered Dreams," these reimagined versions breathe new life into familiar tunes. And let's not forget the powerhouse vocals of Carol Decker, backed by the lush orchestral arrangements in hits like "China in Your Hand."

However, don't expect a mere nostalgia trip. The Orchestra of Opera North adds a level of sophistication and elegance to these 80s bops, elevating them to a whole new level. It's like listening to your favourite tracks while sipping champagne at a fancy gala - classy, yet still undeniably fun.

So if you're a fan of 80s music, orchestral arrangements, or just looking for something a bit out of the ordinary, "80s Classical: Vol. 1" is definitely worth a spin. It's a mix of nostalgia, musical talent, and pure enjoyment that will have you dancing and singing along in a whole new way.
