During a February 6 appearance at MIDEM 2026 in Cannes, France, Sharon Osbourne and Andy Copping revealed plans for an upcoming classical tour of BLACK SABBATH's catalog.

This unique concept will see local orchestras perform the iconic metal band's music with state-of-the-art visuals.

According to Osbourne, the idea was conceived by Ozzy's keyboard player Adam Wakeman, who is inspired by his father Rick Wakeman's work with YES.

Four guitar players will be brought in to complement the orchestra performances, and the tour aims to kick off at London's Royal Albert Hall.

Copping believes that this innovative approach can successfully bridge the gap between metalheads and classical music enthusiasts.

The production, which has already had a sell-out premiere season in autumn 2023, will feature brand-new audio interviews with BLACK SABBATH bandmembers and fans from around the globe.

A revised sound design will also be showcased for this electrifying night of dance and rock that audiences have never experienced before.
