This incredible flash mob playing Beethoven’s Ode to Joy will give you feelings
To celebrate the 130th anniversary of its founding, the Banco Sabadell in Barcelona organised a flash mob, but not just any flash mob. This was a collaboration between the Vallès Symphony Orchestra, the Lieder, Amics de l’Òpera and Coral Belles Arts choirs, performing Beethoven’s Ode to Joy.
If it doesn’t bring a tear to your eye or a lump to your throat, then we can only conclude you’re dead inside.
It was tweeted out by Classic FM, who have a particular interest in that sort of thing.
