Classical Music Flash Mob in Paris' North Train Station

Above: Musicians from around Paris perform a flash mob rendition of the Farandole from Georges Bizet's incidental music for L’Arlésienne in Paris' North Train Station. To enrich the festivities of the fourth annual Orchestres en fête!, a celebration of classical music and Paris' orchestras, musicians from around Paris performed a selection from Bizet's music for L’Arlésienne in Paris' North Train Station. Watch all the way to the end and note the musicians' "music stands." Just out of curiosity, if you were to imagine a classical music flash mob in Columbus, where would it take place?

Jennifer Hambrick unites her extensive backgrounds in the arts and media and her deep roots in Columbus to bring inspiring music to central Ohio as Classical 101’s midday host. Jennifer performed with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and the Civic Orchestra of Chicago before earning a Ph.D. in musicology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
