Thee Phantom & The Illharmonic Orchestra: Hip-Hop Orchestra
When was the last time you witnessed strings, horns, woodwinds and a pianist at a Hip-Hop concert?
Add to that a Fierce soul songstress, a party rocking DJ, a fire breathing MC and that is still but a fraction of what you’ll get when you catch Thee Phantom & the Illharmonic Orchestra in action.
Fronted by husband and wife duo, Phantom & Phoenix, The Illharmonic combines the raw energy and passion of Hip-Hop with the beautiful sounds of live orchestral accompaniment. Phantom wrote his first rhyme at the age of 8 and made his first beat by mixing the instrumental from the Beastie Boys’ “Paul Revere” with Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony at age 13.
In 2001, the ensemble became the first Hip-Hop group to perform at Philadelphia’s Kimmel Center where they were accompanied by members of The Philadelphia Orchestra & Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia. In 2015, The Illharmonic became only the third Hip-Hop group to headline their own event at the world-famous Carnegie Hall. The Illharmonic has since sold out the Kennedy Center, performed with 40 and 50 piece ensembles and toured the United States and Japan.
