Bobby Mcferrin interpretando a Bach (Que tío…)
Comments
There’s a melody at 3:50 that sounds exactly like the end of the ‘no-chord’ melody in Spain.
Bach was such a plagiarizer 
hey everyone, its about music!
just enjoy!
and this is very interesting and worth listening, isnt it?
I have to agree with you, Bach would probaly be honored that his music was played so much. But he would probaly be honored because outside of germany he was not well known at all, and even in Germany, he wasn’t very well known. Also, bach would be happier if he saw his music being played in the honor of God, because he said himself “I am a man of God before a man of music.” Bach wasn’t about the celebration of music, he was about the celebration of god. He would probally be prouder of Ave Maria.
And to Konicki…
Yes, Bobby McFerrin is wonderful – I saw him in concert and he left us all in awe, but really, think about it… His hit made him lots of money, gave him fame and renown, and it gave the world a new mantra – telling the world to “Don’t Worry, be Happy” – something people should still remember to do!
I don’t think he minds one bit… 
DarkLoveFashion,
This is one of my favorite pieces, but isn’t music about what it brings to the individual?
If Bach were here today and knew how many times his piece were played and enjoyed, he’d be honored, but if he knew that a man could lift his voice in such a way as this in celebration of his music, don’t you think he’d smile and be amazed?
McFerrin never changes the melody, he simply chose another instrument.
DarkLoveFashion,
Please listen again. Close your eyes. Think of his voice as a musical instrument. Many pieces have been adapted for different instruments to the point where many people do not hear those pieces on the instruments they were intended for, but they still sound beautiful. In no way is this song “ruined” and in no way is it disrespectful to Bach, in my opinion. Try and listen to it again. I think by using his voice, Bobby McFerrin adds an additional emotional quality to this piece.
Hello I am a violinist and the truth without wanting to offend anyone. I think it is very bad to ruin one of the most beautiful melodies that have been created. I think that if Bach had it in a way we should respect their work. And what about the guy who plays with great skill is his voice. But it does not sound well with this melody. Greetings!
das war doch 2000 in Leipzig – oder ?
Hat zwar ab und zu ein wenig geregnet,
die Stimmung war trozdem gut.
Es hat sich auch keiner im Grab herumgedreht…
Bobby Mcferrin is a musical genius. It’s a shame he’s always gonna be remembered as the “Don’t Worry be Happy” guy.

Bach würde sich im Grab umdrehen, wenn er deinen Esoterikscheiß lesen würde, da er weiß, dass diese Macht gewiss nicht das ist wofür er seine Musik geschrieben hat.
Para os que gostam da nata musical, orquestrada, jazzistica, moderna, atual ou clássica…isso é para ser admirado, aplaudido e contemplado com aplausos infindos.
Que raridade, que benção esta voz, esta capacidade este dom.
è realmente dos DEUSES.
McFerrin’s just a human being and Bach is more than spiritual. This music is absolutely free and timeless. Thank you for posting this video.
