Oh my Lord, to have Jacob, Laufey and Dodie together with the New York Symphony. What a treat.
It's the National Symphony Orchestra, Washington D.C.
Literally didn't even get to my headphones and I was already emotional from this
@@matdrat ty from a dc resident.
@@matdrat Thank you! With NSO Pops Conductor Steven Steven Reineke--he rocks!!
Awsome
Ahhh jacob collier playing his two favourite instruments: the guitar and the audience 😂❤
not the piano? 🥺
He can't play guitar though
@@yea4253 haha yes ok. But he can play his 5-string thingy ;)
Corny joke
I love Jacob ❤❤❤ kisses from Italy 😘😘😘
this is my super bowl
love this comment
Couldn’t agree more!!
literally
Me too❤❤❤
my roman empire fr
We're all Dodie watching Jacob
she is so real for that
honestly!!
Hand on heart ❤
Jacob alone is a master. Laufy is an absolute gem. Dodie is simply so grounding. Together, a wonderful treat. Dodie's pure amazement and enjoyment at Jacob's conducting of the audience, so sweet.
Seeing her reaction made this entire thing even better
I kept being upset when the camera panned away from dodie because I just wanted to watch her watch Jacob! I've seen performers like that before, where even when they're not actively playing/singing they really elevate the experience by being visibly happy/moved. One violinist in particular (Gil Shaham) just GRINS ear-to-ear when he's not playing and the energy is really infectious, and I felt similarly watching dodie.
dodie is learning...(as in being taught) 😊
@@margaretdowns9350 Oh yes. I have been watching Jacob on UA-cam for well over a year now, but to my knowledge I've never seen Dodie before this video. Watching her watch (and love) Jacob during this song made it all the more special for me.
@@billmccomb4629 See, I've had the opposite experience! I'm more familiar with dodie than Jacob; I actually heard about Jacob for the first time on a podcast pretty recently and have really enjoyed checking out his work. Dodie's tiny desk is well worth a watch if you liked her in this.
I love what Ben says "Ladies and gentlemen, this is your future. I think it's going to be OK." 💯
Loved that too 😌💕
Guess that future isn't for us non-binary folks since people always exclude us :)
Stop im trying to catch my breath over here 😢
That's all I needed to have faith
I do agree. ❤
I will never forget being a part of this audience. I have been waiting months for a video to be published and I am so happy to see it again.
You took part in healing me Edward. Thank you.
Oh my goodness. I’m so glad to be able to experience this vicariously through PBS/UA-cam ~ I can only imagine how heart-expanding this must have been in person!!!❤
Must have been a great experience
What a great fortune you had - to be there and to be a creator of this!
Was it planned like with singer in the audience or just spontaneous beautiful moment? It was great anyways 🙂
I *love* how much dodie loves it. It's so gratifying and fulfilling to see the artist as moved by the music as we in the audience are.
And I'm Rhombus tilda, rombla choir! The singers certainly show talent, and the rombla of it all gunges me. the Ganges. Cleveland 8118. And the simple Rhombularg is WOW!!! unbelieavable. Seamus Higgins. Penina Biddle Gottesman. Cleveland is from the same walk of life really sam. Sircle steven. justin taylor ligeti continuum. Rhombaloid. In the shape, neighborial arborial forest within alaska within all things great. rhombishi choir song, dog wait this actually slaps so hard respectfully OQQQQWWWWWWWWWWWWW. Justine Kadota. Holy moly, the audience impromptu choir was something else sais guerakun. edward cruz. stop showing me things now.
love Dodie for that, always so wholesome and so expressive when she's moved!
Probably the best audience choirist of his generation.
Who do you have in mind from previous generations? I think this is level up from Bobby McFerrin
I'm begging for this to be put on Spotify, please
absolutely gorgeous
might genuinely pay for youtube premium just to download it
@@jacksonbyrne4020 youtube downloader??
Connection. The peak of humanity. Pull yourselves together. We are the only thing that saves us. I love you all.
❤
Love u too❤
I don’t know why, but this moved me to tears… There is some kind of magic happening when people are in harmony. Simply beautiful. The world needs more of this. Thank you
You and me - profusely...
Samee I just know its the power of music the power of art In general and i really love how it can moves u ,I really felt the same when the harmony started
I'm not crying. You're crying.
Same. Twice. Doesn't get old.
@@HAL9007 Yes i am. Sobbing. Uncontrollably
the way doddie always kept looking at jacob when he's leading the orchestra
"I can't believe how quickly he turned the audience into a choir, this is insane!"
Her, probably.
She fell in love right then and there lol
I love that you can see every emotion on Dodie’s face 🥹
i think shes in love, low key 7:17
@@georgegodbaz9939in love with the music. With the art. With the talent, yes
the way that the audience intuitively knows what notes to hit as he moves his hands up and down... 🤯
If you get a chance see the lecture panel with Bobby McFerrin bouncing up the stage. Same principle but on a larger scale
It’s cool, isn’t it? McFerrin discovered that we naturally sing pentatonic scales in this kind of situation. Jacob has also figured out how to get people to sing notes outside of the key (without telling them to), but it takes some clever chord movement and a slightly modified hand direction. Check out his masterclass in Mexico City from April 2024.
I'm always blown away by the number of legit singers in the audience.
@@DanielBarberMusicThey’re singing a major scale, but they have context like they’ve been hearing the song for a few minutes.
Despite what people might tell themselves, being tone-deaf is incredibly rare :)
Fascinating! There is a moment where the world is upside down: the full orchestra becomes the audience of the audience choir! Magic all that people doing music together 🙂
I've never really cried watching music on TV but it just happened. Came here hoping it'd be online so I could save it and rewatch it! Thank you.
I was just about to post, so I shall, "This had me in tears."
Same!! My Mom and I watched it last night and it is simply stunning!! We were bawling by the end. 🙏🏻🖤💜
Me too. Beautiful
❤️🥹😭
Yep
I swear, If Jacob is on a stage, he ain't leavin til he turns the audience into a choir
The audience choir always gives me the chills.
And the giggles. Music in its purest form. Brought me down to tears
I love the part where Jacob yells: "It's Wild Mountain Thyme", and proceeds to WildMountain everyone.
😭
this made me giggle
my favorite part was when he said "I am Wild Mountain Thyme"
Dodie's reaction was as beautiful as the performance.
Beautiful does as beautiful is
Jacob Collier in *crocs* on stage with Laufey and Dodie is just *iconic*
and dodie's barefoot!
I hate his clown core. I can’t take him seriously. The audience schtick is getting old.
This is what happy crying sounds like.
What a celebration of music and humanity. Instead of war, let's make more music.
Right - how can we get new leaders to take us away from war instead of rushing towards it with no regard for anything?
To quote The Streets… ‘Imagine the world’s leaders on pills, then imagine the morning after…’
I know you probably don't care and think I'm a [insert bigot name] but this reminds me of when Jehoshaphat in the Bible sent the choir into the battle in front of his army and the Lord confused the enemy ranks resulting in Israel's victory
@@ethanmulvihill7177thank you for sharing this thought. I think positively of you and wish you well!
Holy moly, the audience impromptu choir was something else ..
I had the privilege to witness this in person and it was such a surreal moment. It felt like a dream!
You're very lucky, I would've loved to have been there!
My aunt is in the throes of passing. She's 4 thousand miles away from me but we're one heart. I've just sent this to my cousin to play this for her.
Wishing you peace and condolences ❤
It's incredible that the audience actually stayed in key without drifting off - anyone that's sung in an a cappella ensemble can tell you it's not easy.
This is the trio I've always hoped for, and I'm not disappointed. This is the peak of music. I can't express enough how happy I am to live in this era with these incredible musicians.
the trio of Jacob Collier, Lizzy McAlpine and John Mayer is definitely equally great
Yeah i agree, "Never Gonna Be Alone" was a banger too !@@felity1773
@felity1773 ooh hard disagree. It's crazy to me that musical preferences can be that disparate and still contain Jacob Collier 😭
Madison Cunningham and Chris Thile also complement him perfectly imo :D
every time he conducts an audience i know it's coming but i still weep like a newborn anyway. showing new ways for music to be, so precious to me
Amazing. I hope nobody tries to change this young man's style. He absolutely had that whole audience at his fingertips and it was magical.
Major praise to the conductor Steven Reineke, and the National Symphony Orchestra, for their beautiful contribution to this wonderful performance!
i was happy, i was confused, i was crying.
I love how Jacob's mother is this rock supporting him even now. She's not in the credits, but I'm pretty sure that's her playing violin in the black sequins during his pieces. The NSO folks don't wear sequins. :)
JACOB, DODIE AND LAUFEY performing my favourite song together. Is this a dream?
It's real. And it's every little bit as magnificent as you might expect. Actually, no it surpasses that.
The way I was holding my phone, intently watching, and crying over this video says everything. So beautiful and moving.
Was watching and humming along… and suddenly warm tears just rolled down my cheeks. Music is truly a gift and a mystery. Thank you Jacob, dodie, Laufey, the symphony and the amazing audience for a magical 10 minutes… 🙏🏼❤️
Yess.. Truly the beauty of music Ps.Sid🔥
Makes me think of something that put such feelings in words. ‘Is music something we make or something we are made of’. As these comments suggest, it speaks to the core of one’s soul…bringing us to the vibration of Oneness together 💖
trying not to cry on the train
difficulty: extremely high
Amazing. I can't imagine being in the audience and not knowing anything about Jacob and everybody just starts singing, and they're like, "oh it's our turn? I didn't even practice!" 😅
Literally me at Bonnaroo last year. It was beyond spiritual. I’ve never felt so connected to the world.
Three of my favourite musicians singing Wild Mountain Tyme with the National Symphony Orchestra, plus Jacob does an audience choir?? This is the perfect collab I never knew I needed
If Heaven has a sound, this is it.
We atheists agree!
Dodie has come so far!! It’s wonderful to see her perform with Laufey and Jacob with this arrangement ✨
bruh dodie was known before laufey
Her voice has definitely gotten much stronger
@@1saamor897 sure. def not as respected as a musician though.
Oh, the summertime is coming
And the trees are sweetly blooming
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather
Will you go, lassie, go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the blooming heather
Will you go, lassie, go?
I will build my love a bower
By yon clear and crystal fountain
And on it, I will pile
All the flowers of the mountain
Will you go, lassie, go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the blooming heather
Will you go, lassie, go?
I will range through the wilds
And the deep glen sae dreamy
And return wi' their spoils
Tae the bower o' my dearie
Will you go, lassie, go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the blooming heather
Will you go, lassie, go?
8:30 to 9:30 are my new favorite 60 seconds of music ever. Never thought a trio this perfect could exist, I would have given anything to see this live
This has been one of my dream trios and to see it ALSO accompanied by an orchestra... Involuntary tears this whole section every time.
this is literally heaven, three of my favorite artists collabing and doing such amazing things.. and having dodie in there makes it 100000 times better, PERFECTION
Audience harmonies building to joyful high notes, some strained with laughter mixed in made my CRYYYYYY what the heck George for real this is magic
I got a bit teary when they came in together
never seen something like this. and i cried
These three are emanating choir kid energy and I mean that in the best way possible.
he mastered the audience as an instrument
Moved to tears, and so proud to be Scottish. 🏴😭
theres no way i wouldnt have burst into tears at this performance in person
The smile of Dodie and Jacob is so sweet when Laufey started singing
My heart😤💕😭
There is something so beautiful and humbling about a group singing like that - it's like heaven.
Respect to all the people in the audience just enjoying this beautiful moment without recording on their phones.
I WISH this was on Spotify 😭
can i just say i love the viola part at dodie’s entry 😭😭😭😭😭
they. need. to. release. this. on. everything.
If Jacob is not the new-born Mozart - who is then? He is the same out-of-the-box genius as Mozart was in his period. Simply amazing …
The way Jacob controlled the audience like a piano was breath taking. To keep track of what each section was singing and give clear enough directions that they could all follow it was ridiculous, and then for the orchestra to come back in and everything was still on pitch. But I suppose he knew that would have made microtonal adjustments to the audience if necessary or a big choir is a self regulating pitch instrument.
The man at the end talking about the future being okay echoed my exact thoughts.
"the man at the end" are you kidding? That's Ben Folds 🤦
Find yourself a person who looks at you like Dodie looks at Jacob
This caused a feeling in me that I could not control. An overwhelming feeling of… togetherness
I was so close to tears watching that. I've loved Dodie's work for a long time, only fairly recently found Laufey (via a Tiny Desk concert) and Jacob (similar means of discovery). Jacob Collier is a gift to us all. Wow! Mesmerising!
Caught this show on PBS last night. Absolutely astounding!! I have Ben Folds music in my library, but I had no idea he was so into symphony music and also encouraging the younger generation of musicians. These 3 performers were amazing, of course, and watching the NSO perform was so enlightening. But the topper was Jacob's idea of directing the audience to sing. I've never seen such a thing and it's hard to believe, really, that this random audience could perform like they did at his direction. I'm so glad I recorded the TV show and have not deleted it yet. I gotta watch it again!
Jacob does this at all his concerts. It's come to be known as the Audience Choir and it's well worth your time to check out the innumerable UA-cam videos of him doing this at concerts all around the world. If you like this, you should check out the Mahogany version of his song Little Blue on UA-cam. If you aren't crying by the end of it, there's something wrong with you. (Make sure it's the Mahogany recording and not the album version.)😉
Yeah, Jacob is like a musician’s musician. Except for collaborations, he generally plays every single instrument on his albums. His career began with those fantastic choral arrangements of Stevie Wonder and the Flintstone covers that got him discovered by Quincy Jones. So, I’m guessing he attracts a lot of musicians to his concerts (me being one of them I used to sing in a classical choir).
Ben has a long history of working with orchestral setups, seeing this comment a month later. Check out the Ben Folds Five album "The unauthorized biography of Reinhold Messner", specifically the song "Magic". He also has an album with yMusic, a sextet, and there's a great recorded concert of Ben Folds with the WASO orchestra live in perth. A lot of his later Ben Folds Five and some of his solo work has been a lot more compositional.
A huge thank you to Ben Folds, the NSO and PBS for this amazing collaboration and program!!! Had me in tears several times...unashamedly so.
HELP what is this collaboration???😭 did i die and go to heaven??? i didn't expect this???!!!
We played this song at my dad's funeral and it was already one of the most beautiful and haunting melodies in the world to me, but to see this version by 3 of my favourite artists... it's just otherworldly
This is the ideal trio. I want them to co-write songs!
This is so profoundly beautiful that it's beyond any personal sense of aesthetics, it's beautiful to my very body.
Thank you, Stewie Griffin from Family Guy.
I love the smile on the conductor's face when the audience is singing
YES! I noticed that too. I’d enjoy hearing his take on this…
There is some thing about singing together that is a real sweet spot for humanity. Instant connection and joy. I wonder if it's not really so much about how the audience choir sounds, but how it feels to them😊
🤍🤍
Thank you for that wonderful moment
Thank you ❤❤❤❤
This one song hit so many of my musical interests it feels like the algorithm made it just for me.
same. isn't it great you're not alone)
dodie's pure look of joy and wonder is enough to get me through this week. so much talent on one stage
this is the craziest trio ever, i can't believe these three amazing people are in the same room, let alone playing together!!!
I love how timid this crowd was but by the end they were so surprised and proud of the sound they made
Three of my favorite voices plus the audience choir and orchestra?! This is what heaven must sound like
this is one of jacobs favorite songs, and you can truly see it every time he performs. humble, but so grand. thanks for the upload.
This is a little slice of heaven. What an absolutely incredible group.
sobbing like a baby
Bruh the sheer amount of talent on that stage
Greatest audience participation ever. Incredible.
The crescendo at 8:31 is spine tingling. Just gorgeous.
This is the most incredible thing I have ever seen.
Getting these 3 in one room is gods work. Thank you!
One of Scotland's most beloved folk songs, I've heard lots of beautiful renditions over the years, but this one was special.
I am in tears! this is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen and heard. I love music, how it moves you, how it unites us all and what an incredible power it has. Long live the music!
A prime example of how music can connect us
dodie and her reactions perfectly capture her passion for music and the response it makes people have. I LOVE HER SO MUCH . such a beautiful moment
Dodie's reaction at 7:19 👌same girl.....same
We need this on Spotify ❤
🫶🏻all their voices are so amazing! Majestic 💜
this is maybe the best thing I've ever seen in my life
That was stunning. Jacob's concerts are such an experience.
I was just saying to myself a few days ago that I would die for a Laufey + Jacob collier collab. And Dodie, too? Yes. Just f-ing yes to all of this.
This is literally the best piece of music ever imo 💚💚💚
I have not wept like that in a long time. Thank you to every single person in that room.
Incredible and moving! So beautiful, thank you PBS
WOW I BURST INTO TEARS!!! this is incredible. the pure magic of singing together!!!
