Les Objets Volants deliver an astonishing display of choreographed percussion

A French circus act have created one of the most challenging and surprising incarnations of Bach’s ubiquitous Prelude in C Major from Book 1 of The Well-Tempered Clavier, using a set of Boomwhackers.  

The company, Les Objets Volants (The Flying Objects), specialise in feats of juggling and give an almost note perfect, precisely choreographed performance of Bach’s simple piece, using the brightly coloured percussion instruments.
