http://operaphila.org/facebook - On Tuesday, November 1, 2011, a trio of singers, Rebecca Siler from the Opera Company of Philadelphia, Alize Rozsnyai from The Curtis Institute of Music and Patricia Vigil from Temple University did more than just research at The Free Library of Philadelphia, startling guests with their rendition of the Queen of the Night aria, Der Hölle Rache, from Mozart's The Magic Flute.
The performance is one of 1,000 Random Acts of Culture taking place nationally from 2012- next three years*, funded by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. Knight Foundation's Random Acts of Culture bring artists out of the performance halls and into the streets and our everyday lives.

I love what Opera Company of Philly has done with their 'random acts of culture' in venues around Philadelphia. However, I think good opera singling was wasted on the patrons in the library. Most looked alarmed the girl with the green headphones was getting pounded on; others looked annoyed that they couldn't study/research. And the library -- acoustically wasn't a good place.

I think the view meter is broken -- I came back to this and it still had the same number of views listed as before I viewed it for the first time. What an amazing performance!
