Even if you've never loved opera, you'll love this!

Last November an opera company posing as vendors at a market (mercado) in Valencia, Spain broke into song enthralling everyone there with excerpts from Verdi's La Traviata. Note the cast giving out drinks and dancing with the spectators. What a joyful surprise to make someone's day. Note the tears in the eyes of some spectators at the end of the performance. Great music tends to have that effect. Thanks to Bill for sending it to me. Every time I'm in the Food Lion I'll imagine opera singers dancing in the aisles. It would certainly make stocking shelves more interesting!
