HIP HOP ORCHESTRA EXPERIENCE: On Jan. 20 the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts presents the part concert, part dance party HHOE featuring magnetic scores by JooWan Kim (ESPN), riveting rhymes by MC Unity Lewis (George Clinton & the P-Funk All Stars), and dance by Yung Phil (Kendrick Lamar), all backed by a 25-piece chamber orchestra including flute, oboe, clarinet, 2 French horns, 2 bassoons, a full string section, piano, and drums. HHOE makes you realize how much room there is in hip-hop – sonic room, conceptual room, and that it’s a language that after more than 40 years remains in flux. Visit Kravis.org.
