Grimethorpe in Opera collaboration

The British Open champion will join forces with the Opera Babes, mezzo soprano Karen England and soprano Rebecca Knight, for a series of six 'Brassed Off at Christmas' concerts during November and December.

Grimethorpe Colliery Band Director of Music, Dr. Robert Childs is thrilled to be able to work with the award-winning duo: "The Opera Babes have been worldwide artists ever since they provided the ITV television theme for the 2002 World Cup - so to finally work with them for this series is a brand new musical venture for the band. Their albums have sold over 2 million copies and their unique brand of crossover classical repertoire is sure to thrill our audiences. We can't wait - and we are sure the concerts with their traditional audience favourites and popular Yuletide themes, to go with what Grimethorpe does best, will be a fantastic musical experience."
