This video just cheered me right up.

Also, as someone who tries to spread classical music, I found it gratifying how quickly the crowd gathered, and how willing they were to stay. Classical music is for everyone, but musicians need to make more of an effort to spread it.

Thanks to the inimitable @stephenfry for posting this on Twitter.

P. S. Yes, there are new episodes of Classical Introductions coming. Sorry about the delay (again), but I think I’ve sorted out some important issues that have been holding me up.
