40 Piece All Black Orchestra Performing on Juneteenth!

When was the last time you witnessed; strings, horns, woodwinds and piano at a Hip-Hop Concert? Well that is but a fraction of what you'll experience when you catch Thee Phantom & The Illharmonic Orchestra in action.

Fronted by husband and wife duo Phantom & Phoenix, The Illharmonic is just the 3rd Hip-Hop group to headline their own performance at the world-famous Carnegie Hall in 2015. In 2017, on the same Kennedy Center stage where Nas performed "Illmatic" with the National Symphony Orchestra, the Illharmonic rocked before a Sold Out audience of 2,500+ for a New Year's Eve celebration.

In 2021, award winning actress Viola Davis shared the group's tribute to the late great Notorious B.I.G.on her Instagram page followed by 7 Million. https://www.instagram.com/tv/CPJPf6Bhlco/?utm_medium=copy_link

On June 19, 2022, The Illharmonic will take an All Black, 40 piece orchestra to the DC area to perform at the 7,000+ seat Wolftrap Concert Hall. https://www.wolftrap.org/calendar/performance/22filene/0619show22.aspx#datetime=06192022T180000

Two different audiences.

SITWF's price point is $399.50+ Tax.

Our audience demographics also skews to the 34 and up, while they are grabbing a younger festival goer.
