This is performance art done right.

Seriously, set it to HD, fullscreen it, and watch for four minutes. If you haven't been spoiled by 2:15, you're in for a treat. If you have? Well, it's still awesome.

It's epic WIN but unless they had cooperation with security, police & staff, I can't see them pulling off the entire performance uninterrupted. Here in the USA they'd all have been harassed & arrested as terrorists or interrupting traffic, or something :-(

See my comment below -- it can happen here too. :)

Come to think of it, check out Improv Everywhere and http://www.youtube.com/user/improveverywhere :)

Looks like almost as many spectators as performers.

I can't even imagine how that would sound, being within the ranks of the singers. I bet it's amazing.

The confetti won it for me.

Also, I'll offer Opera Company of Philadelphia "Hallelujah!" Random Act of Culture:

I'll see your Orff, and raise you a Ravel.

Awesome. Simply Awesome.

I showed this to a friend and he retorted with something ... different.

It really falls apart at the end with me going "Er, there's no way you hear that from what they said", but for 75% of that, I was crying with laughter.

The awesomeness! It burns! In a good way.

For those incapable of feeling joy or wonder, I imagine this was awful. Along with everyone else, I think this was splendid.

glorious! This will make up for the other flash link to a Carmina Burana piece.

All right, so I'm overly emotional today due to $OTHER_THINGS, but that made me cry, and in a good way.

Thanks for linking.
