Random Act of Culture

On Saturday, October 30, 2010, the Opera Company of
Philadelphia brought together from 28 participating
organizations to perform one of the Knight Foundation's
"Random Acts of Culture" at Macy's in Center City
Philadelphia. Accompanied by the Wanamaker Organ - the
world's largest pipe organ - the OCP Chorus and throngs
of singers from the community infiltrated the store as
shoppers, and burst into a pop-up rendition of the
Hallelujah Chorus from Handel's "Messiah" at 12 noon,
to the delight of surprised shoppers.
