Kishi Bashi performs his sensational hit "Philosophize In It! Chemicalize With It!" with the National Symphony Orchestra, as arranged by Sam Hyken.

Ben Folds curates and hosts DECLASSIFIED, a unique “part concert, part party” event that defies the traditional classical music presentation by shining a spotlight on great live music performed by the NSO and special guests in a laid-back and relaxed setting.

Conducted by Jacomo Bairos, the evening featured musician and bandleader for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Jon Batiste, plus multi-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter Kishi Bashi (of Montreal, Jupiter One) and composer Joachim Horsley, who has recently arranged music for Michael Bublé, John Legend, and Ben Folds.
