“A little giving goes a long way” (or some variation thereof) is a painfully hackneyed proverb. But as one young girl in Sabadell recently demonstrated, there just might be some truth to it. Check out this sweet flash mob play a bit of Beethoven's 9th.
Opera is almost naive in the way it magnifies and crystallizes emotions. That is the real meaning of the ‘grand’ in grand opera. But music can go even a step further: it can render words almost unnecessary. This is the highest estate that opera can reach, where the music is so communicative that the merest general knowledge of the dramatic action is enough to give you the key to a rich enjoyment of the work.

A flash mob (or flashmob)[1] is a group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual and seemingly pointless act for a brief time, then quickly disperse, often for the purposes of entertainment, satire, and artistic expression.[2][3][4] Flash mobs are organized via telecommunications, social media, or viral emails.
First flash mob
Flash mobbing was quickly imitated outside of the United States. This picture is of "sydmob", the first flashmob held in Sydney, Australia
The first flash mobs were created in Manhattan in 2003, by Bill Wasik, senior editor of Harper's Magazine.[7][9][16] The first attempt was unsuccessful after the targeted retail store was tipped off about the plan for people to gather.[17]

Today (December 1) is World AIDS Day. 36.7 million people live with HIV/AIDS. The goal is to reduce that number to zero by 2030. We’ve made a lot of progress, but 36.7 million is still too high a number. You can show your support by joining an online flash mob, sponsored by the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR).https://goo.gl/F0R7SJ
