The first several minutes of Jacob Collier's Masterclass hosted at the University of Oregon, featuring his iconic talent to turn the audience into a choir.
Be sure to check out the other video I posted from the masterclass. An exclusive performance of In My Room! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PVg9PnIIk7A.html
I love how the audience knows where the intervals are without being told. The first time he points down, the group singing finds the right note immediately because they intuitively know what it is, just from having heard a couple of the notes in the scale that they're singing in.
Oh god, -one gets the feeling that Jacob loves the audience as much as they do love him. He just loves connecting to people through music. And he goes right back to the simplest, most basic human expressions through music, something we all can connect to. Not since Bobby McFerrin have I seen this….and he brings it up to next level! Where does this guy get all his energy, love and endless creativity from?! 🙏 Jacob Collier 🙏
@@NavJordaan on a scale you have major and minor tones. To produce something in “half sharp” means he is using a note not playable on a piano to create the music. Instead, he is half way between G and G Sharp. So slightly higher than G, but not quite all the way to G sharp.
Also, this is a masterclass, aka a professional musician teaching an advanced student, but with audience spectation. So most of the people who'd be there are other musicians looking to learn.
The children need him to teach their music class. They would love ❤️ this. Way better then being pressured to learn an instrument. It would be so amazing to hear each & everyone learn how to participate with their own sounds & unite as one
If you havent figured out yet Jacob collier is a genie, and not just any genie but the actual genie Aladdin freed over 300 years ago. He is THEE Genie.
He really makes me involuntarily weep as my whole body tingles. He could be the greatest musical genius to ever have graced this Earth. And with such grace, style and charm. I very rarely use the word genius. He is one. And there are very few I would actually like to know. He is one.
Man, if he use a big screen to coordinate the up and downs with the audience using a keyboard or something than he probably can sing a song "playing the audience"...
I had a (non-music) class with her the previous term - I introduced her to Jacob's music sometime during then and told her about the masterclass and she was hooked almost immediately. Bless her, maybe music doesn't flow through her as fluidly as it does for other people, but she couldn't have looked any more excited to be there!
@@kirtanshah7222 it's probably that people who are immature and insecure cringe at healthy open expressive collaborative behaviors. Think of just how repressed many people are, afraid to display any nonconformity. Those people feel second-hand embarrassment (cringe) for others who aren't repressed in that way. There's a cultural root of the problem though, eg villages used to dance and sing together in public gatherings but now how many would rather stand outside and cringe rather than engage? Honestly, I cringe at displays of unhealthy repressed culture.
@@thorr18BEM nope, he’s is so out of touch with what good and original music is it’s scary. Collaboration is fine. I’ve seen him giving talks and you can see all the other guests and musicians on stage dying of cringe when he talks. ‘A minor chord isn’t actually a minor chord you know…’ ugh.
