To celebrate the reopening of Barcelona’s Liceu opera house, the symphony held a concert…for 2,300 plants.
“Nature advanced to occupy the spaces we snatched from it,” executive producer Eugenio Ampudio explained on stage at an afternoon rehearsal, where 2,292 nursery plants already occupied every seat before the evening concert.
After the concert, the plants will be donated to front line workers.
No word on whether the succulents clamored for an encore.
