- Sacla' the Pesto Pioneers and Italian foodies favourite brand, served up a great surprise at John Lewis Foodhall from Waitrose and staged an impromptu Opera in the food aisles.
They planted five secret opera singers who were disguised as casual shoppers and store staff amongst the groceries who broke into song bringing the foodhall to a standstill with a rousing rendition of the Italian classic Funiculì, Funiculà.

Omg I was there! I remember this and it was stunningly good. Even funnier was how they all went back to the shelf stacking and shopping afterwards and just melted away. So clever. The world needs more of this.
No you weren't you liar
Lucky you! I wish I would see one of these.
You probably dont give a damn but does anyone know a method to log back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly forgot the password. I love any assistance you can give me
@Nelson Princeton instablaster ;)
@Edwin Immanuel Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
I'm reading all the negative comments and think they need to get a life and enjoy whats going on around them. Its videos like this that make you realise that no matter what is going on in the world, we can all come together and enjoy what is happening at that moment, its as if the world has come together, if only for a moment
It's hard to believe some people can not appreciate this kind of art
Especially with what is happening Stateside with Trump and the Republicans. Nice to forget all that for a moment. BTW: Although I was smiling from the first note, the woman singer carrying the fish around as she sang had me grinning from ear to ear. Thanks To You All! 💐💐💐💐💐💐
" So what did you do today?"..."Well I sang opera in a supermarket whilst holding a very big fish!"...
Brilliant! loved it,and just wish just once to be there when these fantastic flash mobs happen.
Supposedly it's illegal in Britain to suspiciously carry a salmon, which adds some more humour to the situation.
I love it when people create art in public and share it with everyone.
Samesies! Me toO! It's the bEst!
#sharingiscaring #itsawonderfullife
Me too
I love pure comments like yours.
Fantastic....how could anyone not love this?
The lady at 1:44 doesn´t look very pleased. Pity for her... :P :p :p
@@nestorpatino9252 I believe she is actually one of the performers....
Not everyone has the same musical taste.
Whenever I need a smile, I play this. It makes me happy.
it doesnt even matter if you do not know or understand the words... this is food for the soul and if this doesnt give you chills you are not alive imo... can you imagine, shopping, busy frustrated with too much to do, and too little time, and this happens... wonderful, bravo!!
C'est juste formidable que des artistes apportent la culture et de l'enthousiasme dans le quotidien.. merci à eux
It struck me while watching this..... while the singing is brilliant, what I enjoy the most is the reaction of the people. And it's why I'll continue my searches of this genre.
This should be mandatory in all supermarkets once a week. you see the joy on people's face's, incredible! What a great afternoon's entertainment.
Italian singing always makes everyone happy!,
Every time I need a boost and a smile on my face, I watch this video. I love it...should happen more often in grocery stores.
Молодцы! Браво! Огромное спасибо за подаренное удовольствие - послушать такое красивое исполнение вот так, вживую, а не с экрана телевизора в записи! 👍👍👍👏👏👏❤️😊💐💐💐
This is the best of the flash mob opera performances. The man who starts it is amazing.
My absolute favorite flash mob video!
Whenever I need to be uplifted, I watch this video. Bellissimo!
Can this be repeated all over the country ? Just uplifting , glorious and great fun. - superb singers - could be in a top Opera House - I want to have a similar experience when shopping! Bravo!
Every day please
Well done Sacla for spreading the joy! Brilliant!
Sure made my day. They should have GOOD singers in EVERY market !!!!
If only the world could be like this eh?
Ah but it is, if you live it that way...An English version of the song is subtitled "A Merry Life".
Some think the world is made for fun and frolic,
And so do I! And so do I!
Some think it well to be all melancholic,
To pine and sigh; to pine and sigh;
But I, I love to spend my time in singing,
Some joyous song, some joyous song,
To set the air with music bravely ringing
Is far from wrong! Is far from wrong!
Harken, harken, music sounds a-far!
Harken, harken, with a happy heart!
Funiculì, funiculà, funiculì, funiculà!
Joy is everywhere, funiculì, funiculà!
Come to Italy😉
@@munden53 Not at all ap[propriate for the present time sorry - unless you claim to be yet another heartless soul : (
What's the name of this music?
@@tyamada21 ??? I don't understand your comment? Both your comments are 6 yrs ago. Are you saying that the video shouldn't be shown if they're not wearing masks?
I was thrilled at the finale.
It was a fantastic performance.
: )
just wonderful -- thank you for the music we so much need in our lives - more than ever --
The people of England are such a delight to have on this planet. We all know of the nightmare politicians with their little egos, and continual reinflation of themselves to the detriment of others. And along comes Sacla, the performers and crew to celebrate the joy of opera, there, then, and via the WWW, with all of us out here, no matter the time. Thank you.
fantastic comment , no art , whats left , x peace
So are the people of the rest of the UK
I can listen to this over and over ... it just doesn't get played out
I'm not italian, but it made me cry with joy as well! Crazy!!
This is wonderful. They way they go back to their normal shopping, working, etc.....priceless. But their voices and presence, absolutely beautiful
This is absolutely amazing from start to finish! I'd love to experience something like this in real life! It'd be a lot of fun!
I grew up with Opera from learning from my grandparents at about age 12 or 13 and a little while ago my Dutch Oma sent me this link to this video and truly is just a heart warmer and just makes you want to play it over and over! (: I still am into opera till this day! Renne Flemming, diongiovanni, and so many more!
Absolutely fantastic! Amazing, pleasant and heartwarming!😊😊
Only just found this little gem🤩 imagine how boring your next shopping trip would seem after this.
Can't stop looking and listening to this, it must be a bit of Paradise in London! ❤
Absolutely wonderful as an Opera fan we should have many more surprises like this it brings joy to all who hear, the look of delight on the childrens faces....more more more...music is love
I love the Italians ----- they have opera and music in their blood. When I was in Florence, I walked into a produce market and they were singing the Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves from Verdi's opera "Nabucco". It was beautifully sung, superbly executed, and actually made a lot of the onlookers cry out of their love for Giuseppe Verdi, the composer. In America, all we hear is rap, crap, and filth. Culturally, we are the dunces of the Western World, sorry to say.
Fantastic, with 'Va, pensiero' often sung as though it's the Italian national anthem and amazing to be part of a choir or group singing it.
LOL! America is the talk of the world...all negative....since 2015
"actually"
we held a fundraising dinner a couple of years ago and just after the main course three of the waiters suddenly burst into song in just the same way and it brought the house down. Everyone absolutely loved it.
You've made my day, thank you, everyone of you.
How could you not love this its a breath of fresh air in the middle of busy lives!?
Congratulations to kind and generous people that give joy and hope to people in daily life. I wish this amazing and touching moments happen in Venezuela. I would be great!
that was great! All the people in the store enjoyed it!
This would make me so happy to see live! Keep on performing and making (most) people happy.
Notice, This was Brilliant! And No animals were hurt in the making of this edition,,, the fish was dead already!
Estos espectáculos no tienen nombre, son regalos al alma, no a los oídos, sino al alma, que profesionales con esas voces tan potentes acerquen al común de la gente parte de este arte que no tiene "nombre" y que va dirigido al alma, no a los oídos.
Absolutely delightful. Such a wonderful experience. I wish I was there!
I love this one as much for the smiles on peoples faces as for the amazing talent!
the finale with all the voices is superb!
Сколько счастья и добра может принести искусство !
The woman with the fish! All was fabulous!

Just and simply... Wonderful !!! ❤❤️❤️
Maybe even more than Wonderful... FANTASTIC !!! ❤❤️❤️
Doesn't matter if they don't speak right words in napolitan, this is an amazing and fun moment that brings everyone out of the awful daily routine
Magnifico! Even many of the employees and a few customers are opera singers!
Those customers in the market, must have been pleasantly surprised by this song, so well sung by several singers. who sang it spontaneously. What a wonderful way to break routine on any day! What's more the singers have excellent voices, and sing very well together. Not bad for people who are not professional singers. Indeed they sing with the best.
Brilliant- I love this - every time I watch this I live even
This is so wonderful, I wish it could happen in my grocery store. What fantastic moments it must have been for those who were there!
The Napoletano spirit is a state of mind and a way of life. Key ingredients; realizing no one is promised tomorrow , plenty of Napoletano music , maintaining a Napoletano pantry and cooking Napoletano recipes, imparting Napoletano energy to every activity and encounter and hangin' with Napoletani or Napoliphiles.
I wish we will have something like this in the U.S. What a beautiful performance!
We Neapolitans need this, we are very proud of our history
Lindo demais!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏, Bravo!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Rio de Janeiro, acredito que em 2014:

It's so easy to love England!

Lol I would just like to verify this after a 3 year gap
Absolutely fantastic........ music does it everytime. Just spreads happiness.
Maravilhoso, gostaria de estar presente para sentir a emoção desse momento inesperado.

Es mi versión favorita, me conmueve. Bravo por los interpretes.
My voice teacher set this as an assignment to watch, and to look for the man dressed in the hi viz. Turns out it's him!
I'd love to have a wonderful shopping experience like this every time I go to the supermarket...great voice too.
LOVED the fish! Nice detail! Bravo!
Wishing they all lived in Lynden, Washington, United States. Amazing, very talented singers. You can sing in our Safeway Supermarket any time
still brilliant .. every time i see it. So love the woman with the fish!!
Genial...EL CORAZÓN saltó de alegría y la VOZ los acompañó. Por unos
minutos me sentí en la cúspide del mundo Gracias.
Yes, I too had goosebumps - what a brilliant surprise for those shoppers!
Italian opera makes me cry cause it brings so much joy cause of its romantic nature and i am romantic❤, what these guys are doing is much needed in this world that is so focused on negativity. Thank yoy for bringing joy to people❤😘
Not opera, just a neapolitan song
I can watch this over and over and over and....
Absolutely love it. The world needs more of this
yes sir RS!
this was great! I wish people sang opera while I go grocery shopping
OMG I would die happy if that happened in my market. Hey for all you musicians, there is a real appetite for classical music and opera that isn't being met by modern offerings. Keep that in mind.
Rigoletto, Verdi. Phantastic Coloratur Soprano Voice at the End.
It isn't Verdi's Rigoletto, it is "Funiculì Funiculà", a popular Neapolitan song.
@@Shamal777 Thank you! Just what I was looking for. :)
What a wonderful idea! It was such a fine performance and I am sure delighted all the shoppers. Very creative.
that was just fantastic i have tears in my eyes thank you for sharing
Great stuff Greg Tassell!!!!
So much fun. I keep it on my desktop to give me a lift during the day.
È quasi impossibile trattenere le lacrime...!
Unfortunately in our species we have some mentally sick people that are castrated of the sense of beauty, to click "dislike" in a performance like this is to be lost in I don't know what world, What the negative people want? can do they do something better? Excellent flash mob.
Well said👏
Enlivening the intelligence of the shopper’s mind
Don't you just love these flash mobs?
Carol Bentley Just like a REAL LIFE opera performance
This is the coolest video I have seen in a long time.
Loved every second.
Bravo!!! what a joy, I would go shopping every day, so much joy...
I love it. That's my best time in grammar school ...in choir ❤😊
I'm Italian and this made me cry with joy! ... can't help it
Maravilhoso.!!!
O Belcanto tem lugar não importa onde. Bravo !
Wonderful! A Great Classic Italian Opera would certainly liven up my dull trips to the grocery store. I'ed be thrilled to find these people in my veggie section.
La sonrisa y la alegría de la gente es impagable ante esta manifestación de música y talento....maravillosoooo
Absolutely magnificent !!!
Dad ist das beste von dem wo ich jetzt gehört habe.
Fantastisch schön
What a happy video. This should happen more and more and more !
Fantastic, what a great viewing on a Friday morning.....Love it....
I'd love shopping here. Hope this catches on. Real music! Wow!
Quelle merveille ! Que d'émotions partagées !
And I've been humming this melody for the past week...
See also the one filmed in Estonia
Bravo, Brava to all those wondrous singers!!!!
Fabulous! Makes me proud of my heritage!
So,
So, So, beautiful to listening to and I love it
