“When you start thinking about tunes you go, ‘oh we need that song, that’s brilliant... but now I have 600 favourite tunes, and I’m not sure we can do all of them in just one evening!’. The only way to narrow them down was to ensure every tune’s in there for a reason. It’s not just that we think it’s great – we wanted to make sure that there’s a really strong message”
-- Ben Hudson (Pride Classical founder)
