Beating metal filing cabinets, clanging fire extinguishers, rattling shelves and blowing into traffic cones, it's no surprise that the musicians of the Lost and Found Orchestra struggle to stay in tune.
"The instruments are rubbish, they don't stop breaking," says Luke Cresswell, who co-founded the group that uses everyday objects to create music.
"It is chaos, but we're getting there," he said as the orchestra rehearsed for a new short tour of France and Russia that will begin in Paris on Friday. "When you start the show it's very distorted, it sounds awful, but it slowly starts to come together."
