You've Got to See This!!!
Last Update: June 09, 2010

Now if this won't get your juices flowin' and your love of life goin', then I don't know what will!  Check out this video...the members of the Philadelphia Opera, wearing street clothes and blending in with the crowd, burst into strains of Brindisi in the middle of the Reading Terminal Market.  Don't you just love it when the extraordinary busts right into the ordinary?

Maureen, this was wonderful. I had not seen it before. Oh, to have been there. What amazes as well as the opera singers and the crowd's reaction is that the mall or food court actually had customers. I'm so accustomed to being in our own mall these days. I can't wait to share this video with a few of my friends.

Loved it! Can't wait to play it for my sister. As if that wasn't enough, I noticed Anna Moffo was singing Addio del Passato from Traviata and I had to listen. Check it out. It was beautiful. Thanks Maureen.

I had seen this before and still caught myself grinning through the whole thing - with chills! What an awesome experience - and salute the cameraman who did a wonderful job catching shoppers amazed expressions, too! wow! Thank you!

Oh, my, that was so delightful! I wish I was there! Even my kids were amused (hard to instill 'culture' in them...they prefer hip hop). Thank you.

Thanks for posting this. It gave me the goose bumbs seeing how people can step out of the ordinary and share their amazing talents to make others feel good. Loved it. Brindisi is indeed a masterpiece.
