A cat got lost on stage during a Lucerne orchestra's guest performance at the Istanbul Music Festival. A cell phone video made by a concertgoer of this animal performance went viral.
The cat video has now been clicked on by more than 20 million people worldwide, wrote the director of the Festival Strings Lucerne chamber orchestra, Hans-Christoph Mauruschat, in a press release on Thursday. "The cat came, saw, meowed and disappeared again."
To the delight of all involved, the cuckoo calls in Beethoven's Rural Symphony lured them back onto the podium, the director continued.
The Festival Strings Lucerne performed with piano legend Maria João Pires at the Istanbul Music Festival last Friday. The cat got lost on stage in the second half of the concert and mingled with the orchestra.
