GabyDid you know that vegetables can be not only eaten but also played as musical instruments? That’s exactly what the Vienna Vegetable Orchestra does—turning an unusual idea into music.
Before each performance, the members of the musical group craft their instruments from fresh vegetables: at their concerts, you can hear zucchini trumpets, carrot flutes, eggplant rattles, a leek violin, and a pumpkin drum.
The orchestra performs music in various styles, including jazz, electronic, and dub, with the sounds produced by the vegetable instruments amplified through special microphones. At the end of the performance, the audience is treated to a surprise — a soup made from the used “musical instruments” is prepared and served to the listeners. Would you attend such a “tasty” concert?
