In the Hall of the Mountain King

I have a wonderful ‘flash mob’ for you today. This is a fantastic performance of Edvard Grieg’s ‘In the Hall of the Mountain King’ which he originally wrote to accompany Ibsen’s play, ‘Peer Gynt’. It’s a wonderful play on the theme of the piece, performing it in a variety of different styles. Be sure to watch/listen to the end to hear the amazing chorus!

Love this flashmob presentation from Paris.

Fun to watch and hear

I see that the Metropolitan Opera has cancelled their entire 2020-2021 season which could be a bad sign for a lot of other live arts venues and organizations. I don’t consider myself an opera aficionado but I do enjoy a lot of the music and find some of the opera ‘flashmobs’ particularly fun to watch. This one is ‘The Drinking Song’ from La Traviata which seems to be particularly popular with flash mobs.
