Again not flute but personal. But I would like to share it anyway.

I participated with my choir and a full 54 seats orchestra on a surprise performance of the UEFA Champions League Anthem, in split-second exact coincidence with the start of final match in Madrid.

Everything happened in some four minutes, including the installation of the orchestra on the place, with its chairs, music stands, players, the complete choir and all that can be seen in the video. And the 1:50' of the Anthem itself.

With some 300 people involved, it was quite a challenge and resulted in success. We were told by the producers that this was the first time such a thing was attempted. Maybe it's true, do not know for sure.

It was a lot of preparatory work for less than two minutes of music, but it was a different experience and quite amusing. I am the white, tall head at the extreme left of the choir group. The Anthem is said to be based on a Händel piece, do not know which.

A first video can be seen here:

Ha, ha, ha! So amusing!!! I imagine it was a lot of fun, and really impressing that it was possible to coordinate everything.
