one orchestra that rocks

I’m hoping to work with them whilst they are in London, and do some experimenting with mixing beatboxing with classical music. I used to play in local youth orchestras myself, and played at the Albert Hall and Festival Hall a few times. Check me out giving it some on the timpani aged 16:
