The 2014-15 Louisville Leopard Percussionists rehearsing Kashmir, The Ocean, and Immigrant Song by Led Zeppelin.
The Louisville Leopard Percussionists began in 1993. They are a performing ensemble of approximately 55 student musicians, ages 7-12, living in and around Louisville, Kentucky. Each student learns and acquires proficiency on several instruments, such as marimbas, xylophone, vibraphone, drum set, timbales, congas, bongos and piano.

It certainly would be highly impressive if these youngsters could successfully pull off "Kashmir" in all of its extremely vital and potent emotional elements.I saw Page and Plant in concert once when they performed the classic rock tune with a Moroccan orchestra.WOW!!Does anyone happen to know whether or not Zep also employed such musicians on the original recording?

Encore! I just found this video today on YouTube and found myself mesmerized by the performance. I see that it has already been posted here, and has over 3 million views...

I believe just on the Page/Plant No Quarter project/tour the Moroccan orchestra was used.
