A rip-roaring parade from Paraorchestra
A rip-roaring parade from Paraorchestra.
Taking to the streets of Gloucester on Friday 10 July, SMOOSH! brings a high energy wind and brass band to Tredworth in a celebration of music, movement, and community. The joy-packed parade features a selection of pop bangers and karaoke classics - with tunes from Fatboy Slim and Basement Jaxx, to Kate Bush and Adele.
A core of Paraorchestra musicians, dancers, and members of the local community, will form a mobile human jukebox that invites you out onto the street to dance and sing along in a magnificent communal ‘mass-aoke’.
Under the artistic direction of award-winning conductor Charles Hazlewood, the pioneering ensemble aims to disrupt and reinvent the orchestra. Bringing together professional disabled and non-disabled musicians, Paraorchestra create powerful music experiences that span genres and artforms.
Powerful new operas exploring the climate crisis, social injustice and women’s perspectives, sit alongside reimagined classics.
An exploration of life, loss and a single question: where does true inspiration come from?
