May I give you a very short anf quick personal opinion until the weekend : YES, from the perspective of classical music. However , in a perfomance, there are many other considerations
Let me hear what you think.
I googled and found some information about Bobby McFerrin. He is pretty famous and amazing.
Robert "Bobby" McFerrin, Jr. (Born March 11, 1950) is a vocalist and conductor. He is best known for his 1988 hit song "Don't Worry, Be Happy". He is a ten-time Grammy Award winner.
McFerrin was born in Manhattan, New York, the son of the late operatic baritone Robert McFerrin, and aspiring singer Sarah Cooper. Robert, Sr. Was the first African American to be a regular with New York's Metropolitan Opera. Bobby McFerrin married Debbie Green in 1975. They have three children.
McFerrin switches rapidly and fluidly between normal and falsetto registers to create polyphonic effects, effectively performing both the main melody and the accompanying parts of songs. He makes use of vocal percussion created both with his mouth and by tapping on his chest. McFerrin is also capable of overtone singing - as used in his song "Drive" from the 2005 DVD Live in Montreal. Such skills made him one of the precursors in the area of beatboxing. A notable document of McFerrin's approach to singing is his 1984 album The Voice, the first solo vocal jazz album recorded with no accompaniment or overdubbing.
I would like to apologize for bringing up this human beatboxing issue to your elegant thread. However, it's an interesting topic. Well, if you do not mind, we can discuss it in another thread later on. Thanks a lot.
Thank you. Brandenberg Concertos are always my favorite, Especially No. 3. The Meneut & Badinerie is my favorite of favorites. But I don't like this version.
Vocal is the most beautiful music instrument. But only Bobby McFerrin is not strong enough, can try the ONE IN A CHORD.
