Just imagine if Dilla could see this. How much he should be proud that his music take place in an opera. Rest In Peace James. Your music lives on Forever.
drummer is Karriem Riggins, if anyone knows he was one of Dilla's close friends and fellow producers, he toured with Common and i believe he's from the D
I JUST BROKE INTO PIECES...PLUS LOOK AT ALL THOSE REMARKABLE PEOPLE ON STAGE VIBRATING ON THAT ONE PULSE....FEEL LIKE I'M ON A SPACE SHIP TRAVELING AT WARP SPEED...FCKN INSANE!!!
I love that the orchestra is comprised of people from all different walks of life, backgrounds, and histories. They are united by a common force known only as music. I think that's what Dilla wanted to do: unite the human race through music. A man of few words, he thought years into the future.
Most of these musicians didn't even knew who Dilla was, if I remember correctly :). I remember Miguel Atwood Ferguson say something along those lines on the DVD, about everybody going in for an incredible experience, when a lot of them were unfamiliar with Dilla's work beforehand.
One thing I find interesting in this vid are the many, many young people playing real, original, world class music. Is there a true, viable demographic of young people loving this, or, are these artists performing in large for a much older group of people.
2:19: This joint even got the composer catchin' the holy ghost.
Definitely shed a tear when I heard this one. REST IN PEACE DILLA! #DillaChangedMyLife

Woody Harrelson directs a mean orchestra! Very Dope!
Just imagine if Dilla could see this. How much he should be proud that his music take place in an opera. Rest In Peace James. Your music lives on Forever.
