Singer/conductor Bobby McFerrin thrilled audiences and young singers in his sold-out 1993 and 2001 OBF appearances. And he has broken barriers as well, with Grammy-winning forays into jazz, classical, and world music, and millions of views on YouTube. The 85-voice Stangeland Family Youth Choral Academy opens this concert with an energizing set of classical and contemporary choral works. Bobby steps out for his solo set, then he and the singers share the stage for songs from his new smash CD VOCAbuLaries - a soulful conclusion that will ignite the youthful spirit in us all.
Bobby's collaborator Roger Treece conducts these four works from the VOCAbuLaries CD:
