A joyful surprise

This is a truly uplifting video all the way around. Rising unexpectedly out from among the diners a shopping mall food court, a talented  and well-rehearsed choir stuns onlookers (in a very good way) with the Hallelujah Chorus from Handel’s Messiah. Turn up the volume, switch to full screen, and enjoy this joyful moment. What’s so beautiful (in addition to the singing) is the interaction between the choir and the onlookers. It’s clear almost immediately that everyone present is absolutely loving the “flash mob” and you can literally see how happy the singers are when they realize how well they’re being received for something they’ve obviously been planning and rehearsing a long time.
