Bobby McFerrinÃs latest expansion of the known universe: Bobble, an improvised opera with a wordless libretto, will be presented in Moscow on January 25 and 26, 2010 by the Musical Olympus Foundation This new project gives Bobby a chance to collaborate with other voices, welcoming local talent and influences. In this 90-minute a cappella stage show, Bobby and a cast of 16 singers, reflecting a panoramic vista of influences and traditions, re-enact the plight of the citizens of Babel and their struggle to find a common language. Through music, spontaneously composed and conducted by Bobby, they learn to listen and to hear each other.
