EUROPE DAY 2015: FLASH MOB IN STRASBOURG - ODE TO JOY

On the occasion of Europe Day 2015 the EU Delegation to the Council of Europe organised a flash mob in the centre of Strasbourg, based on an idea by Ambassador Jari Vilén.
Many thanks to our cooperation partners: Mayor Roland Ries, Deputy Mayor Nawel Rafik-Elmrini, the City of Strasbourg, the University Orchestra, the City Choir, Goodman & You audio-visual productions.

Such joy and universal understanding when great music is played!❤❤😊😊

[@Strecki19]

Long live the united Europe!

[@helenemontreuil3417]

Il devrait y avoir beaucoup plus de flashmobs sur KZbin et dans la réalité. Lors de mon voyage à Munich au mois de juillet 2015, il était si agréable d'entendre des concerts imprévus dans les parcs et à certains coins de rue. Ne lâchez pas et continuez à nous distraire et à nous permettre de garder des souvenirs merveilleux.

Look at the surroundings. That alone is enough to make you feel joy,

[@hansrosenthal7266]

What I like very much is when at the beginning the two musicians are trimming their instruments and notes. If that fits, the show can beginn. -- Hans Rosenthal (A.H.R.D.) PS: And what a concert was this!

Strasbourg or Strasburg, where the French and Germans fought about every cenitimeter (not inch). The (THE) song about brotherhood. What more can you expect, await, want or imagine?

[@amanb8698]

A very important city for the history of the EU and Western culture. The EU started essentially from the ECC having the steel community of France and Germany combine work and then that expanded further to include BeNeLux countries. The birthplace of the EU is in the region. Strasbourg, Bonn, Frankfurt am Main, Maastricht, Brussels, Paris, and Rome are very important cities to the EU history.

This is not even close to the level what was done in Sabadell.

[@gloup81]

Zsolt Galló this actually sounds like a parody of sabatel's masterpiece!

[@trevorjones2997]

Agreed

[@ShotDownInFlames2]

I think Sabatel overdubbed the sound on theirs.

In a city of France, which was once a part of Germany for short period and went back to France again, they are playing music from an Austrian1

[@XenophonSoulis]

Beethoven was German from Bonn.

[@leolinox]

And although it didnt belong to Germany for long they always were German

[@amanb8698]

Beethoven was a German from Bonn. Beethovens original ancestors were of Dutch/Flemish background from the Low Countries Netherlands & Belgium. Beethoven died in Vienna, Austria though. He is honored in Bonn, Germany his place of Birth and Vienna, Austria his place of death.

Das ist die wunderbare neunte Symphonie von Beethoven, die als europäische Hymne gnadenlos missbraucht wird.

[@msirma0077]

A once great piece of music, now forever tainted by it's association with the many evils of the eu.

[@QUABLEDISTOCFICKLEPO]

Not a good performance.

[@int16_t]

Horrible. But good try.

[@tmduboz9479]

The EU is ruining Beethoven. By misusing and making up their own words to go to it. When they aren't suppose to sing.
