Poor Beethoven is probably rolling over in his grave: On Tuesday, an orchestra of 1,000 ukuleles tackled the finale of his majestic Ninth Symphony at Royal Albert Hall in London.
I haven’t yet been able to find footage of the event, but I did happen upon the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain’s rendition of “Smells Like Teen Spirit.”
As Dr. Demento would say, “Horrible!”
