Every Monday, the KQED Arts blog features a new Video of the Week to start the work week off right.

Op zoek naar Maria, which translates to “Looking for Maria,” is the name of a Belgian reality show looking for someone to play the part of Maria in a new musical version of The Sound of Music. In this commercial for the show, a remix of Julie Andrews’ rendition of the dangerously up-beat “Do Re Mi” plays over the speakers of a train station in Antwerp. The music incites a gradually growing mob of 200 happy people to come together and spread cheer to weary travelers through choreographed dance moves. Come on, get happy!
