Description |
"For over 16 years STOMP has enthralled audiences the world over with its unconventional genius in creating percussive instruments from household objects. Now it takes the concept to a new level: an orchestra where the strings are replaced by a bowed saw section, woodwind and brass become bellows, bottles and kettles and timpani are fashioned from industrial kitchen cauldrons. Even vacuum cleaners and hair dryers are musical instruments. The orchestra claps its hands, stamps its feet, shouts and dances. Some are even aerialists, swooping across the stage and over the audience..." |
