Myleene Klass has been chosen to present the Classical Brits which are taking place at London’s Royal Albert Hall on May 8.

“The Classical Brits is the biggest event in the classical calendar. To be the host is a personal highlight in my career,” Myleene said.

“I’m really looking forward to presenting a ceremony that is so close to my heart and I’m sure it will be a magical evening.”

“We are delighted to have Myleene hosting the show this year,” commented co-chairmen Dickon Stainer and Thomas Kaurich. “Her fresh, dynamic, and positive style has been instrumental in bringing classical music to a wider audience in the UK. Together with an unprecedented all-star line up, this year’s Classical Brits promises to be one of the biggest and best shows ever.”

The nominations will be unveiled on Tuesday April 8 in London.
