Members of the Philadelphia Orchestra performed an impromptu concert on board an airplane in China.

The musicians were onboard a flight from Beijing to Macao that had been delayed for three hours due to weather problems, according to the orchestra's website.

After a brief announcement, a violinist, a violist, and a cellist took out their instruments and began playing the final movement of Dvorak's American String Quartet, much to the delight of passengers.
