Mr. Rabinovitch is talking about the people who stood up but who were not singing, and I saw a number of them. Since I know this piece extremely well, and can remember it almost as well now as I did when I first sang it 49 years ago (OMG, can’t believe it was that long), let me note that the reason that their standing is important is that standing is what is traditionally done by the audience when hearing The Hallelujah Chorus. The first time it was performed for the king of England, he stood (some think he was “moved” but the king himself never said and rarely did kings show emotion publicly), and of course everyone joined him. (This chorus is the final song. In Handel’s “Messiah”). Since then it is done traditionally the same, with all the audience standing and listening quietly.

I read that certain music is composed in the higher levels (in the astral planes of existence, at a higher dimensional frequency zone of reality. In the higher realms of the astral are the various versions of heaven, for example, although there are lower regions with lower vibes definitely not angelic!). Then these special songs are vibrationally/intuitively "downloaded" through musicians who can assume the correct wavelength to pick up that signal. Not all music, not even a majority, is necessarily composed higher up then sent down, but such music arrives as if fully written to the musician, who just needs to write it out as they hear it in their head. My famous composer friend has explained the difference; she said that kind of song just arrives and flows through the guitar and words onto paper complete, as is, words and tune and harmonies and chords as if already written and just downloaded in a single sitting; while other songs are composed here laboriously, slaving over the lyrics and chord progressions that are best... those can take as long as years before they come to completion. But since she isn't writing multi-part choral music, it could take two weeks to "channel" something like this and get it all just as heard in the head - especially since Handel didn't have any recording equipment. 🙂

Reduces me to tears every time I listen to this beautiful performance!

12 years later and I still love this so much!

You know, I always wonder why I never see any cool flash mobs when I go out. Then I remember that I don't actually go out...

Ending game me chills. And I am not even religious.

Absolutely beautiful!!!!!!!!! The shoppers were caught off guard but sat there and enjoyed the song of Praise to King Jesus!!!!!! I'll take that flash mob any day👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 God bless🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

The song still holds true today, He will rein forever and ever. Amen.

This remains my favourite flash mob. I find it astonishing how many people try to capture it on their phones rather than sitting and soaking up a never-to-be-repeated experience that can never be “captured”. One guy about halfway through you can see just appreciating. He is a smart guy.

“Never to be repeated”? You do know how silly that sounds, right? I’ve seen at least 10 other videos of hallelujah flash mobs just this afternoon, almost all as good as this one. A particularly good one was done at the Wanamaker’s in Philadelphia, “a random act of culture.”

Even on a computer, you can feel the anointing on this song. I have been watching this every year and I love seeing the people witnessing this magnificent piece, praising our Lord, the perfect Lamb, who takes away the sin of the world.

Even after 12 years, this video always brings into tears ❤ (listening in 2023)

Some years ago I was in a large choir and our conductor who we had had for over twenty five years died. There was a memorial service held for him and as the family left the church the organist (who was the choir’s organist) started playing the Hallelujah chorus and people all over the church sang their parts from where they were. Totally spontaneously. It was so special.

2019 How can you not be moved........

2020 NEEDS this.

As does 2021. Perhaps it will be in a Christmas flash-mob that people will once again enjoy the naked-face vocals of strangers in celebration of the season?

This is one of the most joyful pieces of music ever written, thus a treat to sing or hear it.

I love when songs of the lord just makes people smile and rejoice without even knowing it. And he shall reign for ever and ever. 4 months to Christmas God love you all and keep you happy Christmas

I love watching people show their love for their Lord and Savior.

Please don't ever take down this video, it's a wonderful experience even on video! I've often wondered how many singers were involved, and what church or choral group they belong to at the time. The music is difficult to sing, but their harmonies are perfect, and the joy on the faces of the singers, as well as the public enjoying the music, are guaranteed to make you smile when you listen to this flash mob! Uplifting, and inspiring, I return to this version of Handel's masterpiece every Easter and Christmas to share it online with friends. I come to watch it the rest of the year just to be renewed with praise to Jesus, The King of Kings, Lord of Lords!

I watch this many times during the year. The arrangement is stunning. Thee best piece I have ever heard. I feel spirit all around me. I wonder how many angels were in that mall. Definitely a give from God ❤️

Now this is a flash mob I could get into. This is what a flash mob should be! Just like the Movies! Legendary!!! Put down the phone.

This was my mamas favorite Christmas video. We probably watched it a thousand times over a span of 8 years. She loved it!. She would allow herself the tiniest prideful smile when she'd turn her friends or anyone visiting on to it. At 92 she felt so cool knowing what You-tube, a Flashmob, to 'cast' a program and the term 'going viral' meant. When I watch this now I can still feel her hand held tightly in mine while we watched just like the mamas and their children watching it the first time. Somehow the beauty of the moment always made her hand find mine. Sometimes our hands found my son's and we would stop all the business of the season and form a chain as we listened. Such a precious gift. You were cool mama. you were the coolest ever and I miss you with every breath. Thankyou to those people who made this ten short years ago. I hope you have some idea of the Joy your efforts brought to the world. A Blessed New Year to Everyone.

@@lynerobinson7809 I'm so sorry for your loss, Lyne. Yes, I'm sure she is. 🙂 Metastasized breast cancer took my mom from me years before her time. Christmas was our favorite time of the year, both together and individually. My mom introduced me to Handel's Messiah by way of a live performance when I was quite young. In an effort to not be so depressed at Christmas since her passing, I have made it a tradition to play the entire Messiah first thing every Christmas morning. I don't think it's possible to stay depressed after listening to The Halleluia Chorus. Not only that, but about 15 years ago, I discovered that I had learned the lyrics to the entire Messiah by heart (I have learned music by ear since the ripe old age of six). Anytime I get the opportunity to perform the Messiah, or merely the finale itself, I jump at the chance. I do, and will always think of my mother when I hear it. I wish you the same blessing. 🙏🏻

I remember being so floored by this that I cried.

I JUST LOVE THIS AS A MEANS OF HONORING THE BIRTH OF THE KING OF GLORY AND THE REDEEMER OF THE WORLD. It makes me weep tears of joy that AT LEAST SOME people seek to honor Him, rather than the pagan elements that have mostly "overtaken" the real meaning of the birth of Yeshua. Of course, Handel considered "The Messiah" to be his masterpiece and actually inspired by the Holy Spirit to honor THE LORD.

Fabulous! I loved this. These people actually sounded joyful and inspired while singing, which is how the song should sound, like they are celebrating------unlike so many professional choirs who only sound bored. Extremely well done.
