On the Road with Philip and Kenny
Today I will be at King Middle School, Freeport High School, and the Telling Room with artists Philip Hamilton and Kenny “The Human Orchestra” Muhammad. Tomorrow we will be at NYA, Lincoln Middle School and a Portland Ovations board meeting at CIEE.
I can’t wait to see Philip and Kenny in action with students, teachers, and community members in and around Portland. Both men are incredibly talented musical artists and so charismatic. I’m eager to get feedback from those who will be sharing their “voices” with Philip and Kenny. What was your experience working with them? Lend us your “voice”; let us hear from you.

I loved the performance! I liked the way that all of us, students, got to interact and feel like we were part of the show! It was truly a good time and an even greater opportunity, to listen to a kind of music that most people haven’t heard much of. It was REALLY inspiring!
Quinn from King Middle says:
Thank you so much for getting Philip Hamilton and Kenny Muhammed to come to our school and preform/interact with us. It was so incredible to be sitting on the floor of our cafeteria and listen to these to amazing artists. Kenny taught us some basic sounds of beat-boxing and Philip showed us some singing techniques. They tough us about rhythm and how any song can sound good as long as it was sung with a rhythm. They then sang/beat-boxed a song for us.I really appreciate this marvelous opportunity to meet these and listen to these people.

My names Amanda and I’m from king middle school and Philip Hamilton and Kenny Mohammed came to my school on tuesday and it was BOMBING! they were so amazing on stage and they even pulled some of us kids to participate on stage. well it wasn’t really a stage but it was still great. I love how they encourage kids to try and make a life’s goal to do the impossible. and its not possible if you really believe in yourself. I also think its great that they’re doing a piece in the music world called “voices”. it was just so much fun I really appreciate them spending time to come and talk to us.

Thank you for coming to King Middle School to perform for our chorus.

Mayzie from King says:
When they came to our school I wasn’t expecting much but when they sang/beat boxed the first song I was amazed. I kept wanting to hear more. I was a failure at beat boxing but I had a great time. I never knew you could beat box from your neck. I’ve also never seen anyone yodel. I had a great time listening to them perform together.

The show at King Middle School was was awesome. The beat boxer Kenny was insane when he combined laughing and beat boxing at the same time.
Audrey Woodsum<3 says:
What an awesome experience! It made me want to learn to beat box myself! Everything that I hear sounds like music and I am attempting to beatbox. I have no idea how Kenny did the beat boxing. It seamed impossible. When I got home, I told my parents all about it and showed them some videos of you guys on youtube. It was ah-mazing! I think that the show was overall great and left me wanting more. :-)

Thanks a lot!
Bridget D. says:
I was astonished by Philip and Kenny’s performance at our school, King Middle. It was one of the most amazing kinds of music I have ever heard! It’s really cool and they’re great at it! I never knew that such a person could make these cool noises without instruments. Well hey, they themselves actually were their own instruments!
Jake Fogel (King Middle School) says:
I saw Kenny and Philip a few days ago and it was one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. They killed it, straight up. The improvisation and beats that they made were really cool. It was even cooler to see that they were bringing together different types of music from around the world, fusing music from the Middle East with a hip-hop beat. I can’t wait to see these guys again. It’s gonna be sick.
Sophia Krieckhaus says:
You guys are amazing!!!!!!!
Darriana (King) says:
Kenny and Philips performance was absolutely amazing. I had a lot of fun trying to beat box, and all of the different rhythm exercises.
Christaphunkalicious Swaggaholladocious says:
Kenny Mohamed is a beatboxing beast!!!
That’s all I’ve gotta say
Boutavee K. says:
Philip and Kenny were amazing at King Middle School on Tuesday. I was blown away from what they did. They inspired me. I thought that I could not succeed in what I wanted to do, but when Kenny and Philip did what they did, it seemed to me that I could do what I wanted to do. Kenny’s beatboxing was incredible. I never knew that someone could do that all with their voice. Philip’s voice is also amazing. I do not know a lot of boys who can sing that way and actually hit the high notes. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it.
Chelsea says:
Thanks very much coming to king middle school I REALLY Enjoyed it
Haley says:

Thanks to Aimee, Barrri Lynn and the young artists, parents and teachers Kenny and I met this weekend. I enjoyed meeting everybody and sharing the love of the voice and creativity. See you in April with the rest of “Voices”.
Joseph Farrell says:
Thank you so much for bringing Philip Hamilton and Kenny “The Human Orchestra” Muhammed to King. My kids were so amazed and inspired by their workshop. Not only were they incredibly talented musicians, but they were equally adept at working with kids, engaging, involving and inspiring them. I believe this was a shining example of a highly
successful artist workshop made possible by Portland Ovations. Thank you so much for your commitment to bringing such quality arts programs to the students of Portland!

What an awesome class at Freeport this afternoon! Kenny and Philip were both tremendous teachers and amazing performers.
