  • believe that certain classical musicians have not been very good at grabbing these opportunities when they show themselves. We could learn a lot from different genres of music without selling out. I believe we could learn a lot from this different positive and outgoing attitude towards the audiance.

  • "Bobby McFerrin comes from what you would call a different music and concert environment and there he is used to a more relaxed atmosphere than what you would normally find at classical concerts. We are used to the idea of a classical concert involving a "white tie" and no one uttering a word or showing too much exitement.

    "They don't know what to do with their equipment and whether they are behaving the right way and in that respect Bobby McFerrin comes of as very relaxed and in tune with the atmosphere in the concert hall. That's the reason why the concerts seem very different" 

  • Bobby manages to break the mold and move in music as in a fluid!!!

    Bobby's just pure music!!

  • the xylophonist is disgusting and he really embarrassed himself here

  • O.K., the title says 'An evening with Bobby McFerrin", so i don't really care of what those narrow minded Danish "musicians" say, especially i don't understand what they're saying.

    By the way: if you can't be flexible and open minded in music then you're not a musician. A monkey can make music from a paper.

    Love you Bobby.

  • What about American subtitles where Danish is spoken?

  • bobby hits the nail on the head when he says classical musicans can be very narrow minded and they do improvise but need direction and with written cadenzas there isent alot of freedom

  • wish i could find this with eng subs, the man is a bloody genious!

  • I wish I could go to the school he speaks of. I'm a music major and I wish they had an improvisation class at my school

  • i'll be always grateful to you

  • bobby mc ferrin un Géant de l'improvisation il ne chante pas il respire la musique c'est un extraterrestre venu d' planéte qui s'appelle symphonie

  • he's totally right... there are lots of people called "musicians" that cannot improvise...what a shame!

  • This is absolutely amazing. Could someone please provide some English subtitles to let us know what the conductor is saying? Even without them, this is wonderful. Thank you.

  • Thats a rare clip - thank you for sharing its a real treat to see.

  • Indeed rare. You are most welcome. I am glad you like it. He is a truely born musician.
