Copenhagen Orchestra Flash Mobs Train Line With Symphony [VIDEO]

Flashmobs are normally pretty lame. Dancing hipsters, smirking along, and then leaving - only after having disrupted your day. Not this. The Copenhagen Philharmonic Orchestra took to the Metro to promote a new classical radio station, by performing Grieg's "Peer Gynt." The result? Epicness. Full video after the jump.

So cool. All the audio was recorded on the train as well, with a full complement of violins, cellos, bassoon, clarinet, flutes, the works.

Amazing. When they’re done, they just walk off the train. Too cool.
