“Hip-Hop meets Classical” with SMKA, Aleon Craft & The Atlanta
Symphony Orchestra aired on CNN @ 12:45pm February, 12th 2010.
This is a special collaboration between Hip-Hop and Classical music that is the first of its kind. According to the governing symphony organization, this is the first collaboration of its kind. The collaboration was a result of ASO’s Concerts for Young People, a series of programs that focus on integrating the arts into school curriculum with concerts performed by full orchestra. The ASO commissioned Atlanta-based SMKA Productions to create a song that sampled classical music. The piece was performed for a full audience by the ASO and Aleon Craft at the Atlanta Symphony Hall 18 times between October-Febuary 2010.
“It’s a fascinating piece of work.”- Jere Flint (ASO Conductor)
