Musical Moments: Funiculi, Funicula

Shopera...

Shoppers in an Oxford Street supermarket in London were surprised last year when some in the store broke out in song with the famous Neapolitan piece, Funiculi, Funicula.

The rousing song was written in 1880 by Peppino Turco and set to music by the composer Luigi Denza to commemorate the opening of the first funicular cable car on Mount Vesuvius.

I hope you’ll enjoy Funiculi, Funicula as much as some shoppers did.
