Oakland-based Ensemble Mik Nawooj, led by Berklee alum and composer/pianist Joowan Kim, injects Western European classical compositional techniques into hip hop to create “something that sounds giant and important” (East Bay Express). MCs/lyricists Do D.A.T. and Sandman share the stage with a classical chamber ensemble (flute, clarinet, violin, cello, piano), heavy bass, funky drums, and a lyric soprano to perform original compositions and to reinvent East Coast and West Coast classics.
