2 The Vegetable Orchestra Roman Kotenko, 10 C

3 Introduction Known in Europe as Das erste Wiener Gemüseorchester or The First Vienna Vegetable Orchestra, the orchestra is an Austrian one-of-a- kind musical group performing on instruments made up entirely of fresh vegetables.

4 Information The Vegetable Orchestra was founded in 1998, and consists of 11 musicians, a sound engineer, a video artist and, of course, a cook. Based in Vienna, the Vegetable Orchestra plays concerts in Europe and Asia – even playing in large philharmonic orchestra halls. Instead of guitars and drums, the orchestra plays Cuke-o-phones, radish- marimbas, carrot flutes, pumpkin basses, leek violins, and other freshly made instruments.

5 Vegetable-instruments The First Vienna Vegetable Orchestra blows carved-out carrots, taps turnips, claps with eggplant cymbals, twangs on rhubarb fibers, and rustles parsley and greens, all in the creation of an experimental sound that eventually winds up – literally – in the audience's stomach.
