Invisible Orchestra
Invisible Orchestra is an exciting musical experiment where beautiful sounds are created with the body in the most unconventional and hilarious ways.
Created by IO in association with Polyglot
Imagine a game of musical chairs where the music starts when everyone stops. Invisible Orchestra uses chairs as instruments, and just as musicians use their hands to strum a guitar, you are invited to use your imagination – and your bum – to shimmy, squash, bump and bop your way around the orchestra. Coming together as an ensemble, conducted into harmony, you’ll discover a surprising and delightful symphony of sound.
