Flash Messiah


This is so awesome.   Chorus Niagara, with the help of director Robert Coopera, shocked the diners* at the Seaway Mall foodcourt in Welland Ontario with a stealth performance of Handel's Halleluja Chorus.  It could be the remnants of the food poisoning I suffered today, but it gave me chills!  Thank you John Terauds for posting this.  I wonder if it is too late to organize this for our upcoming TSO Messiah?


*Does one "dine" at a food court?

    That was awesome!!! And kudos to the cameramen. They captured all the action and the sound quality was perfect.

    That was amazing! I didn't think I've actually ever seen that many people in Welland period.

    Not just chills, but tears too (Lisa, I know you can appreciate this). I have such a soft spot for the Hallelujah Chorus - chokes me up every time. I am now fully in the Christmas spirit - even though, I promised myself I couldn't go there until Dec. 1! I love that other diners who were not part of the Chorus joined in. I need to go find more kleenex.

    Improv is everywhere. Nice find. The guy at 0:23 was especially great.
