Danish Hot Chili Pepper Orchestra

There are numerous people in this world that enjoy taking on the most difficult challenges. Some dedicate their lives to challenge themselves for an admirable cause, while some take on tasks that make you wonder, ‘why?’ The challenge that the members of the Danish National Chamber Orchestra set out for themselves can be said to fall into the latter of the two types of challenges. Conducted by entertainer and chili pepper enthusiast Chili Klaus (born Claus Pilgaard), the orchestra performs the Tango Jalousie while consuming the world’s hottest chili peppers. Their passion for music is not only evident from their beautiful performance but through their gradual changes in facial expression as well. Enjoy.
