Yeah! I've seen a few workshop-like sessions on TV with Bobby McFerrin and he's brilliant.
Loved that, dancing all over our brains!

Thanks Cosmic for the link and Matt for bringing this up. I just watched the entire hour or more, long session from this series: Notes & Neurons - In Search of the Common Chorus.
