Chantilly, VA — The United States Air Force Band launched a musical “flash mob” Tuesday, surprising visitors at the National Air and Space Museum’s Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Va., with a holiday-themed concert.
Disguised as a special holiday kickoff event, the U.S. Air Force Band began playing an arrangement of “Greensleeves” with a single musician, Technical Sgt. Emily Snyder, who played the English horn.
After several moments of performing solo, Snyder was joined by more than 100 instrumentalists who popped up throughout the crowd, transitioning the song into “What Child Is This,” giving a “surround sound” style performance that charmed guests throughout the museum.
