The Vegetable Orchestra is really something totally new which has impressed me. It performs on instruments made of fresh vegetables. The utilization of various ever refined vegetable instruments creates a musically and aesthetically unique sound universe. The Vegetable Orchestra was founded in 1998. Based in Vienna, it plays concerts in all over the world. There are no musical boundaries for the Vegetable Orchestra, it can fuse the most diverse music styles: contemporary music, beat-oriented House tracks, experimental Electronic, Free Jazz, Noise, Dub. The musical aim of the ensemble expands consistently,
The ensemble is a mix of people with different artistic backgrounds: musicians, visual artists, architects, designers, media artists, writers. A concert of the Vegetable Orchestra appeals to all the senses. And at the end of the concert the audience is offered fresh vegetable soup...really amazing!
