I was just sent this link along with the following comment: 

"Last month at the central market  in Valencia, Spain, opera singers 
disguised as shopkeepers were selling  produce at the various stalls there. 
Suddenly Verdi's Il Travatore starts  playing over the loudspeakers & they 
burst  into song.  None of the  shoppers has a clue what's going on. Sort of 
like  candid camera but  completely charming."

Photographically speaking, I was surprised at how many people were able to 
pull a camera out of their pocket or purse to capture the event.  

Click on this & watch and enjoy the music and the faces in the crowd.  
There's a bit of La Traviata in there, too.
