Lost and Found at the Royce Hall, UCLA:
"In this carnivalesque twist on the symphony orchestra, (the Lost and Found Orchestra) transforms a formal space like Royce Hall into a playground of new and different sounds - and invites everyone to become a musician in their ragtag theatrical troupe. After this dynamic and invigorating show, the audience may never look at a classical symphony orchestra in quite the same way"
Sarah Taylor Ellis Edge Los Angeles
(LFO) is music theatre on a grand scale, featuring a cast of 10 STOMP performers, 16 musicians and a choir. It came to Los Angeles after a record breaking run at the Sydney Opera House and London's Royal Festival Hall. Come see what happens when the creators of STOMP take over an entire orchestra...
@KTatafu Just saw the show ... Absolutely blown away! Gonna need a couple days to process the awesomeness that was witnessed tonight.
@muthmedia was pretty spectacular. STOMP-like beats; innovative instruments & a touch of vaudeville. Epically great.
@littlemsgg It was phenomenal!!! Thank you for making this a wonderful show.
@DrlemonWCGGG @pandemoniumUS Loved the show,... SHEER GENIUS!
@lynnfergy It's BRILLIANT. if you get the chance, go.
@WendyLiebman I was there too! I totally agree! RT
@lynnfergy Totally makes you think about music and sound in a different way. Amazing really.
@elizgel Amazing what they can do! I haven't been to any shows like this before.
Samlaybourne Very great.
@dburrier . star star star star star
@chwittany best $30 spent so far this year :)
@bradschreiber followup to STOMP, is even more astonishing and far more complex. It deserves a world tour!
@dmarthal ... off the hook! I highly recommend it
@drdubow Good god it's amazing. It's... pandemonium, you might say.
@DrumJam pure brilliance. I fell in love with the show from the first down beat.
The LFO was back home for Christmas, performing at Brighton Dome Dec 20-29th
THANKS TO EVERYONE AT BRIGHTON DOME FOR A FANTASTIC RUN

Check out this preview of a film about an inspirational youth orchestra from Paraguay:
"flows like a symphony does; from pastoral and ambient moments, to passages of thunder and great energy. Musically touching on multi-faceted rhythms of the world but also, for this reviewer, the hobo carnivalesque sounds of Tom Waits circa Swordfishtrombone/Rain Dogs, it works very well as just music. But as part of a greater whole, it’s magical."
"a tour de force of rhythm, inventiveness and playfulness"
"a great show for adults and children and a must see over Christmas
"a symphonic swirl of multi-layered sound performed with avant-garde theatricality."
