The Opera Company of Philadelphia and members of 28 local choruses burst into Handel’s Hallelujah Chorus, accompanied by the famed Wanamaker organ at Macy’s in Philadelphia, much to the delight of the shoppers there.
It’s all part of Knight Art’s Random Acts of Culture project, designed to bring fine arts to a public that may not experience them otherwise, and to enrich and engage the cultural communities in which we live. Their goal of 1,000 random acts of culture is well on it’s way, with 42 acts to date nationwide.
Watch out – you may be next to experience a random act of culture!
