    Flash mobs are one of the rare evolutionary social movements of the 2000s that are totally healing, and always a net positive for society. They bring us together, completely, for a precious few heavenly moments. They lift us out of the maelstrom, up above the clouds of anxiety where we can peer, for a brief moment, into the infinite distance of joy.
    This brought back a lot of memories for me, because I sang in the chorus of Carmina Burana when I was in high school in the ‘70s.

      ".....Flash mobs are one of the rare evolutionary social movements of the 2000s that are totally healing, and always a net positive for society....."
      MUSICAL flashmobs, yes, definitely.
      But there are also criminal flashmobs coordinated by cellphones, in which a whole neighborhood of bad kids go into one store - then all shoplift stuff, run out simultaneously, and beat up anyone who tries to stop them. Those are not positive. Not at all.

    • @phthartic

      I kinda missed the bass drum and gong. But that might have given a few heart attacks in this situation. I even thought the tympanist was holding back a bit to avoid overwhelming a 'lay' audience with the massive percussivosity of his regular performance level.

      I truly hope that the events return once Covid is declared no longer a pandemic. The years we’ve spent worried, unable to fully participate in large groups, have had a toll on many. Flash mobs have many benefits for the groups (often young talented musicians who learn precision & additional timing, from this style & get exposure to performing for large crowds, the hours planning & rehearsing build cooperation, highlight some but usually all the performers, building trust & I imagine they are fun & then exciting & satisfactions of a job well done & much more I am sure). The film crew, the editors who often also are young & learning are gaining great experiences. Rarely do members of the public not stop to witness some or all of the performance - reminding us to take time to enjoy life amid the hustle & bustle. The joy is always evident. Often voices join in or people dance. Over all a very positive experience, all round. Can you tell that I am a huge fan? This mob was exceptional, thanks for sharing their performance with the world.

    I had to come back to this video. I'm an avid concertgoer who knows the formality of seeing & hearing a concert in a symphony hall, so this is very different. I could not imagine going somewhere to do errands or getting on a plane or train, & all of a sudden random people in the crowd started to play instruments, sing, & dance. It would be extraordinary. I would gladly miss my plane or train to witness a performance such as this.
    Again, Bravo Everyone, Multi Bravo!

      Agree with other commenters. Unfortunately I stopped performing a couple of years before the advent of flashmobs, but I so wish I could participate as either performer or audience in one of these.
      In our "community band" we once or twice invited audience members to sit inside the group to experience the music from our perspective and everyone seemed to love it. I doubt any of the performers in this video felt "selfless" in the least. It is a great feeling to show people, especially kids, the feelings of power and satisfaction derived from performing a piece like this on real live wind and percussion instruments, not synthesizers, drum machines and autotuned voices.

      Not to nitpick but... And I could be wrong, not being a vocalist... But I don't think they're songs. They're sections or movements of a secular oratorio. But yeah, I know the whole setting is a bunch of people in a tavern singing songs; many of them drunken songs. So while I shudder violently every time someone comments "yeah dude, we're totally playing this song in band" when referring to a piece of classical/serious music, if one can ever be forgiven for calling a piece of serious music a song, I suppose this is the occasion.

      Carl Orff, long dead composer from Munich, Bavaria, though world famous for the lst fifty years, I knew him in the sixties, when I was a child, go look him up in wikipedia everybody. Camina Burana made me cry with joy even then, it's perfect for a mob, only the sound was very much like playback, maybe not in life but on the video. The accoustic circumstances in a railway station may be okay for a mob,but not a recording. Love it anyway

      @@nn-ro1lv 99.999% so-called "spontaneous" flash-mobs are either advertising (usually for events) or official publicity (in this case OeBB 'celebrating' the end of refurbishment work at Wien Westbahnhof). They take too much work to organise to be something that people put on just for the fun of it.
