Urban Classic was a meeting of musical cultures that brought together some of the biggest names in UK black music with the 成人论坛 Concert Orchestra in a ground-breaking live event.
Grime producer DaVinChe and jazz musician Jason Yarde joined forces with conductor Charles Hazlewood, who lead a 36-piece 成人论坛 Concert Orchestra alongside several UK grime artists, to create a 70-minute musical suite of grime, hip hop and classical music.
The music was performed live for an audience on Thursday 16 February 2006 at Hackney Empire and was broadcast on 1Xtra Live on Saturday 18 February 2006

"We at Bigga Fish are dedicated to aiding and providing opportunities for young people to achieve their goals. The talented young artists collaborated with high-calibre musicians, taking their skills to new heights on a nationwide platform via the 成人论坛."
