Why don’t we sing more often, when we want to? ~ Bobby McFerrin

The startlingly original voice of Bobby McFerrin – there’s nothing else like it in the world. The thing I love about this interview is the territory he covers on the subject of improvisation. Let go and simply expressing in the moment without attachment to outcomes – that’s life at its BEST, it’s freedom.

I didn’t know how devout a Christian McFerrin is. You can really see and hear a passion exuding through him as he describes his faith, discussing the musicality in various religions, chants and his love of psalms.

“Bobby McFerrin’­s greatest gift to his audience may be changing them from spectators into celebrants and transforming a concert hall into a playground, a village center, a joyous space.” – Los Angeles Times

A man who has devoted much of his energy toward music education; a man who engages his live audiences in improvisational singing; a man who is certainly worth the time and attention to truly listen to. :)
