We’re sticking with the flash mob theme, riding the community spirit, the family, and the wholesomeness train – – until we drive the darkness completely out. This clip, now seen by over 8 million on Youtube, is performed by 100 musicians and choir members from the Vallès Symphony Orchestra, the Lieder, Amics de l’Òpera and Coral Belles Arts choirs. They play the final movement of Beethoven’s 9th Symphony in the town square of Sabadell, Spain. Just check out the faces and the joy this event brings to the performers and the audience. Good Sunday morning to you.
Thank you Michael for sharing this wonderful piece. Happy Holiday to you and your family.
I was also reminded that today is Beethoven’s birthday (1770).
I posted this a while back and it never fails to fill me with joy…Joy for this Sunday, community to lift the heart, music to remind us we do speak a universal language. Perfect.

You posted it and I missed it. Wow. I’m stealing your ideas and content and not giving you any credit (and not even knowing it). Shameful.

For the record, “All” of your other posts are so good and so etched in my memory, this omission would never happen again.

Hardly – I prefer to think that we share a certain aesthetic which is very cool.

BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!

Thanks Francine. There is some benefit for me as I don’t watch a lot of TV, all of these is brand new for me even though it is months (years) old. Yes, this is inspirational.
