Sometimes it's kind of crazy to think that music started with a couple of troglodytes yelling and hitting things, and evolved into what we have now. But maybe it's not so crazy... maybe our brains have known the answers all along, and we're just trying to unlock what's inside...
A pentatonic scale is a musical scale made up of five pitches (strict definition). In this video, Bobby McFerrin (Don't Worry, Be Happy singer) shows us how we are all designed to sing pentatonic scales... whether we know it or not. (Keep in mind that he is experimenting with a room filled with scientists, with no formal music practice.)
