Dvořák - Symphony No. 9 Allegro con fuoco (Official Music Video)

Can South Korean dance troure Waveya and a booty music video get the kids to listen to classical music?

Say hello to Classical Comeback, a project that promises to resurrect the canon by matching masterworks with contemporary videos. It might sound ludicrous, but it kind of worked back in 1979 thanks to Bo Derek.

It's open source, so act fast before someone else grabs Bolero.
