Flash mob at Copenhagen Central Station playing Ravel’s Bolero

04:53 Wonderful flash mob performance of Ravel’s Bolero by the Copenhagen Philharmonic. It builds up like any good classical song should to a huge crescendo as musicians appear from all sides. Truly hypnotic.

    I really like this hahaha, esp the timpanist: “I was just about to get on the train with my timpani….”  I don’t know that the conductor was necessary and I think it would have been better if they had memorized it but whatever, still great :)

    @SkankestDraf:disqus , playing or singing in a large group in such a large area with messy acoustics can be VERY difficult. Plus, I liked the effect of the conductor and the lone drummer at the beginning. Haha. I totally agree about the timapnist, too! =D
