The notion was that anyone can basically try to play music - think of it as the punk scene transplanted to classical music. The whole orchestra were musicians, but given an instrument they couldn't play. Brian Eno helped record the first two albums, and Michael Nyman actually played in the second half of one of their concerts - completely in line with their ethos. There's a newer version called The Really Terrible Orchestra with the same premise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGunnShow 5,933 Posted January 26, 2021 Just now, Mullet said: I'm not familiar with them but I guessed they are deliberately bad right? Nope, not at all. The rule was that you had to give it your best effort, but it was usually an instrument you couldn't play. Although their version of the 1812 Overture was incredible as they even managed to find someone who could play the cannon badly!Portsmouth Sinfonia - Wikipedia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
