We’re an orchestra,
not a cult.
Basement Orchestra makes beautiful music in unexpected places. Classical music breaks free of the concert hall and has a bit of a riot. Founded in 2012, Basement Orchestra is now a 50-piece musical behemoth. In that time, we have brought our come-as-you-are vibe and blissful noises to a variety of unusual spaces, including the iconic Rough Trade Record Stores, the even more iconic Bethnal Green Working Men's Club and several windy car parks.
We have provided live scores to up-and-coming filmmakers, and have entertained tripped-out revellers in the way they least expected on the main stage of Secret Garden Party and at Mighty Hoopla.
