Los Angeles-based Debut Orchestra is set to perform a free concert of Kanye West and Beethoven mashups at the city’s Aratani Theatre on April 16.

Titled Yeethoven, the show comprises orchestral combinations of six original Beethoven works and six tracks from Kanye’s 2013 album ‘Yeezus’.

The Young Musicians Foundation collective has previewed the performance online with a video that features a fusion of 'Blood On The Leaves’ with Beethoven’s ‘Fifth Symphony’. Check it out below and head to YMF’s website for further details.
