On May 13th, 2008 Honda’s ASIMO conducted the Detroit Symphony Orchestra (DSO) as it performed “Impossible Dream” to open a special concert performance with renowned cellist Yo-Yo Ma. Now that is something you don’t see everyday!
Honda hopes ASIMO’s appearance will draw attention to the DSO’s music education programs, and particularly the DSO’s effort to encourage and support involvement of children in Detroit. You can read the full press release about Honda’s The Power of Dreams Music Education Fund by clicking here.
While you can find many clips of this performance on the Internet (a YouTube clip is embedded at the bottom of this post) the best quality video is available from Honda’s site. It is a huge file, but the quality makes it work the wait.
