The queen of pop meets the king of classical in the new musical creation from composer-conductor Steve Hackman. His latest classical fusion features Beyoncé’s chart-topping hits seamlessly interwoven with Beethoven’s Symphony No.7.

Several orchestras will perform this innovative mash-up this summer, including the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra and the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. Hackman specialises in the classical crossover niche, having also penned mash-ups between Mahler, Notorious B.I.G. and 2Pac, as well as Brahms and Radiohead.

Sir Walter Scott, 1st Baronet was born in College Wynd, Edinburgh
Scotland on this day in 1771.

“Wounds sustained for the sake of conscience carry their own balsam with the blow.”
