A symphony orchestra in Brazil recently stunned the audience by continuing to play flawlessly in the dark, despite a power outage caused by a raging hail storm. Footage of the incredible moment went viral on social media.
The power outage occurred during a performance by Piracicaba Symphony Orchestra (OSP) at the Teatro Municipal Erotídes de Campos in Piracicaba, São Paulo, Brazil, at around 4:30 p.m. on Aug. 12. The orchestra was presenting “Farandole” from Georges Bizet’s work “L’Arlésienne” as part of a program celebrating the 256th anniversary of Piracicaba, a proud city of 400,000.
