'If ‘world music’ could be encompassed by a single group, Rome’s
Orchestra di Piazza Vittorio (OPV) might just be it. They are a phenomenon which has sprung out of the city’s diversity; 15 players from 9 countries, spanning continents and cultures, religions and backgrounds, some with music diplomas, others whose education came from busking in the streets.'
Read the full feature and see the videos at
MondoMix.
The Orchestra will be performing in the
Barbican Hall on July 17th. All tickets are £10. After seeing the documentary about their inspiring story of multiculturalism, believe me, you really don't want to miss this concert.
