Eighteen global musicians from sixteen countries come together with one bold musical vision for a special opening night party
One World Orchestra transcends boundaries to create their exciting signature sound, bringing together musicians from the UK, Colombia, India, Kenya and Ukraine to blend mesmerising rhythms, stories and energies.
Together they make an exhilarating fusion where ancient instruments meet contemporary beats, salsa montunos collide with English folk and Arabic maqams, and authentic rhythms from around the world pulse through UK Grime and African harmonies.
The group exists as a proud declaration that difference isn't just to be tolerated, but is a vital force that can strengthen and heal fractured communities.
In a special opening night party for Brighton Festival, One World Orchestra present a night of two halves; a full live concert followed by a collaboration with DJ and Producer Max Wheeler, where instruments and electronic production come together to get you dancing and celebrating.
OWO is extraordinary - a rare gem where the quality of their music matches the depth of their integrity
