bbc proms 2011 concerto for turntables and orchestra performed by dj switch (full version)
The concert opens with a Concerto for Turntables and Orchestra by Gabriel Prokofiev, grandson of Sergei, bringing echoes of club nights, dance floor beats and remixes into the concert hall. Performed by DJ Switch and The National Youth Orchestra.
DJ Switch is the first EVER DJ to perform at the Proms. The Proms is an annual TV season of the world greatest orchestras / composers and orchestral conductors. This is HUGE. The proms is held at The Royal Albert Hall, the original home for the DMC World Championships!
Anthony John Culverwell aka DJ Switch aka Tony ’3 Times’ -- so called for his three back-to-back world DJ championship titles -- began moving records at the tender age of 11 but has since conquered the world over with his scratching superpowers & hasn’t looked back.
Not to be confused with nemesis Dave ’MajorLazerBeyonceTheOtherSwitch’ Taylor, this Switch defines himself through live performance & versatility. He’s done regular guest contributions for 1Xtra, Radio 1 & the BBC Asian Network, shared the stage with luminaries from Professor Green to Public Enemy, performed at clubs, cinemas, cricket matches & churches.
From his involvement in the Alternative Dubstep Orchestra to heading up the forefront of the burgeoning Electro Swing scene, Anthony can turn his hands to anything & everything.
