Looking For A Mid-Week Pick-Me-Up? Here’s Bobby McFerrin Singing Bach.

Robert Keith McFerrin, Jr. + The opening movement of Bach’s Concerto for Violin, String Orchestra and Continuo in A minor (BWV 1041) = Straight-Up, Toe-Tappin’ Gloriousness. And I defy anyone to make that equation equal anything else.

I realize that joy is not an emotion typically associated with a minor key, but Bach’s keys seem like little more than a jumping-off point. And besides, McFerrin’s voice always sounds lilting; so alive. So happy (regardless of key).
