@solopaola WTF?
There's a decent probability that one of the musicians will do a bit of Ode to Joy, as its a popular piece (in fact, it is the most popular piece in western music), and the conductor can make eye contact with whoever is playing it to encourage them to play louder, and the rest of the instruments catch on to it.
If you're doing scales, you would hit Adagio For Strings much earlier than Ode To Joy.

whoa!!!
amazing!

Right, good point.

@Reinocerous25 yeah but just because you dont play scales fast doesnt make it not a scale, i do my scales starting with whole notes do through every speed up till 32nd notes
-
As a musician, I know Ode to Joy is not a scale. And why would one think of that while playing scales. Also it is Derren who tells them to play scales, and he has no knowledge of what the conductor has chosen.

4:38 hahahah shes all like cocky darren brown

I don't think all of the musicians were just playing scales. there were mainly long tones to begin with.
Do you suppose there could be something written on the paper Derren is holding that is perhaps invisible or hard to discern, but is actually there nevertheless?

Possibly yes but then the "running order" of the guesses that Derren makes would have to be known by Robin in advance, but yes it is possible. The guess woyuld also have to be known by the orchestra. But by looking at him when he was conducting they would "know" when they were playing the correct piece.
