Beatbox at the Orchestra
Beatboxing is the art of making music by imitating instruments (especially percussion) using only your mouth - a veritable human drum machine! FootboxG (world beatBox champion!) and Airblow, whose rhythmic flow is sometimes transformed into a trumpet, sometimes into percussion, share the stage with OPRL. It's an astonishing mix that's sure to surprise you. Who said that symphonic music and beatbox couldn't live together in perfect harmony?
