    Opera singers disguised as shopkeepers were selling produce at various stalls last month at the central market in Valencia, Spain. Suddenly Verdi's Il Travatore started playing over the loudspeakers, and watch what happened.

    That was terrific. :D I loved watching the faces of all the shoppers as they enjoyed the performance. We could all do with something like that - it would certainly lift the spirits wouldn't it? :-D

    YESsssssssssss!
    That was Great...and two of my favourite arias to boot.
    This takes me back a few years to the days of "Flash Mob" happenings here in Holland.

    I have actually been to that market so I appreciated this video on several different levels.

    Thanks so much for having this, GardenGirl.--Chapeau!

    That was great! I love it when things are done in the moment, or happen in the moment. I was about in tears at how well they did. Thank you nice way to start the day!
