Levitation Orchestra

Following their formation in 2018 by musical director Axel Kaner-Lidstrom, Levitation Orchestra has earned a reputation as a visionary artistic collective, whose dynamic live shows have built a following which stretches beyond the UK jazz scene and across genres. The group has developed a uniquely egalitarian approach to creativity, and their “ultimate disregard for any boundaries” has allowed them to create a perfect blend of their diverse musical influences. The 11 members are all leading their own exciting projects. Inspirations range from Alice Coltrane and Sun Ra to Stravinsky and Ravel, all blended in the mixing pot of London's heritage of sound-system musics. Expect cinematic landscapes and emotions mixed with all the energy of the vibrant new London jazz scene.
