The Irrepressibles

I met Olga at the V&A Museum yesterday afternoon.


We’d gone along to see The Irrepressibles, the fabulous 10-piece performance orchestra who blew me away when they played such amazing live music at the recent Alternative Miss World. They were premiering their performance installation of The Human Music Box as part of the current V&A exhibition 'Baroque 1620-1800: Style in the Age of Magnificence' (until 19 July).


They performed in an enormous box.


A Human Music Box.


It was a brilliant show, of course.


This is the genius Jamie McDermott, the owner of that amazing voice, artistic director and composer.


Oh, I’m a big fan! I think they are fabulous. Don’t take my word for it though - listen to them here.

They’ll be at the Latitude Festival where the Human Music Box spectacle will appear for three shows on the lake between 17 - 20 July. If you’re going along to Latitude do try to catch a show. I’m sure you won’t regret it.


Love The Irrepressibles
