Classical Cleveland began as Classics at Kirkleatham on the 29th January 1999, 25 years ago almost to the day. That first concert featured violist Scott Dickinson of Scotland and Lithuanian pianist Daiva Stulgyte. Such was the success of the first concert that more followed and the series soon settled into a monthly pattern. The series has presented over 200 musicians at over 250 concerts. The venues have switched from Kirkleatham to Redcar, Stokesley and occasionally at Saltburn.
