The entire audience got played. In the best possible way, of course.
-
Sounds like a start of a joke. "A group of musicians walk into a theater"
-
Jacob is a multi-instrumentalist, the list of things he can play includes; people
-
This man just orchestrated a whole audience who came prepared to listen but instead became the choir. I can't imagine the feeling that will have been inside every person's hearts in this moment.
-
Whoever this kid is he's lucky he gets to enjoy that whole gig by himself, bands fucking huge tho
-
Jacob to the audience: Congratulations, you played yourself.
-
jacob’s audience is so musically intelligent. when he first points up, he raises them a half step (to the 4th). after returning them to the 3rd, he points down and they instinctively move down a whole step (to the 2nd) because they’ve already set the key in their minds. so cool
-
This is one of the most "human" things ever. The fact that with very simple gestures we very deeply understand what noises to make to harmonize effortlessly with one another is hauntingly amazing. So permanently burned into our culture, our genetics, our souls, is this mystical, musical harmony.
-
Audience: ooooOoooOOOoooo Jacob: ♪┌|∵|┘♪
-
so this is what an audience filled with musicians sounds like
-
The phrase "He just played us like a fiddle" has never fit something so well
-
I love the term ‘musician’. From a classical violinist to a bass trombonist in a jazz band, or even a Mongolian throat singer—we all speak a common language and can create beautiful things together. Music is amazing.
-
It was only a matter of time before Jacob could establish complete control over his audience. I’m telling you, his next album will just be recordings of the audience singing…
-
Everyone chill 'til he harmonizes the audience in microtones
-
Most audiences: cant clap 4/4 on beat This audience: becomes a freaking choir
-
There's a concept in sociology called "collective effervescence" which I just love it's sort of about that feeling when you're doing something together with other people and everything feels elevated and connected I think that's what a lot of people are describing in their experience of singing in choirs or concerts (for anyone looking for a research rabbit hole to fall down after watching this)
-
“What instrument do you play?” Oh. The audience.
-
You can’t play the audience Jacob: haha Audience go Fmaj
-
I attended his masterclass in London about 4 years ago and we did this same exercise. He did more jazzy stuff and crazy chords in our one, though this one feels more like a cohesive "song"
-
I was lucky enough to bump into Jacob after one of his gigs. I asked him if he's ever been in a situation where the audience hasn't been able to sing what he asked, he said that's never ever happened before. He really does get the best out of people! It's made me completely rethink how unbelievably musical we can be with the right encouragement and guidance =).
