The Orfeó Català choir performed an extraordinary musical set this Tuesday on board a LEVEL airline flight traveling from Barcelona to Los Angeles.

Nearly 150 singers from the Palau de la Música Catalana resident choir sang Beethoven's Ode to Joy, from the Ninth Symphony, at an altitude of 35,000 feet. The performance was coordinated with the crew to ensure flight safety.
This artistic milestone marks the group's first performance in the United States, where they are scheduled to debut this Friday alongside the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
