Approximately 650 members of the Opera Company of Philadelphia were intermingling amongst holiday shoppers. You could hear the organ play then lo and behold, the choir broke into song. Suddenly, at 12:00 noon, what appeared to be holiday shoppers opened their mouths and began singing Handel’s Hallelujah Chorus.What was so amazing, more than the heavenly voices that turned Macy's into a holy cathedral, was the response. People literally stopped shopping, stood motionless, and were emotionally moved and touched by the presentation.
When the performance was over people clapped thunderous applause of praise.
