This is a concert you’ve been all dreaming of for a long time!<\/strong> Composer, vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist Jacob Collier,<\/strong> along with the a cappella sextet Take 6<\/strong>, are giving a much-awaited concert in Estonia. Despite Jacob Collier being considered a young musician and Take 6 having sung together for over 40 years, the British artist and the U.S. ensemble share excellent harmony and unique musical sensibility. Together, they have released 18 studio albums and won 14 Grammy awards.<\/p>\n Jacob Collier is a versatile artist whose work transcends genre boundaries. His debut album “In My Room,” released in 2016, became a hit in both the jazz scene and the broader music world. Jacob won his first Grammy awards for his arrangements of Stevie Wonder’s “You And I” and the theme music for “The Flintstones.” This was followed by sold-out tours and collaborations with renowned musicians such as Coldplay and John Mayer. To date, Collier has released four solo albums and won five Grammy awards.<\/p>\n Take 6 is an American a cappella group that started in the 80s, drawing inspiration from jazz and gospel. They have released 14 albums, won ten Grammy awards, and collaborated with artists like Ray Charles, Whitney Houston, Stevie Wonder, and Quincy Jones, to name a few.<\/p>\n As Take 6 is one of the world’s best vocal ensembles, and Jacob Collier’s concerts bring thousands of people together to sing harmonies, Tartu \u2013 the city where the first nationwide song festival took place \u2013 is a symbolic place for Collier and Take 6 to perform in Estonia. The evening will be made even more special by the domestic favorite NO\u00cbP<\/strong>, who will bring a unique line-up to the stage.<\/p>\n The concert is part of the European Capital of Culture Tartu 2024 main programme.<\/strong><\/p>\n ———————————<\/p>\n Jacob Collie<\/strong>r is a multi-instrumentalist, singer, arranger, composer and producer, based in London, England. Hailed by many as one of the most prodigious and innovative musicians and thinkers of his generation, Jacob has proven himself worthy of every superlative that has been used to describe him. Spreading joy amongst a multitude of generations with a glorious child-like energy, an old soul, a knowledge of music that is second-to-none, and a tremendous warmth of humanity, Jacob\u2019s style is flabbergastingly unique, combining elements from every genre under the sun \u2014 and his world is easy to get lost in.<\/p>\n Jacob, who is mostly self-taught, has been creating music for all of his 23 years. In 2012, he began to share some of these creations with the world via YouTube. These self-produced multi-layered multi-tracked audio-visual creations, borne from his family home in London, began to attract ears from all over the world, racking up tens of millions of views. One day in 2013, Quincy Jones\u2019 ears reached Jacob\u2019s sounds, and he signed Jacob to his management label, to help bring some of his ideas to life.<\/p>\n In 2016, Jacob released his debut album,\u00a0In My Room<\/em>, which was entirely self-recorded, arranged, performed and produced in his home in London.<\/p>\n Jacob then set out to bring his room to the stage. With the help of MIT PhD student Ben Bloomberg, he designed and built a groundbreaking one-man live performance vehicle which defies the musical laws of nature, featuring a circle of musical instruments, six simultaneous multi-instrumental loopers, a custom-designed vocal harmoniser instrument, a real-time reactive multi-Jacob video screen, and one Jacob in the centre of it all, The first ever performance was held at the Montreux Jazz Festival, 2015, where Jacob opened for Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea. Minds were blown; goosebumps were risen. Jacob set out to tour the world.<\/p>\n From winning two Grammy awards for his debut album, to playing 150 shows in 26 countries on his One-Man-Show World Tour; to collaborations with Hans Zimmer, Herbie Hancock, Pharrell, Tori Kelly, Snarky Puppy, Metropole Orkest, Samsung and Apple; to speaking at the TED Conference 2017; to harmonising hundreds of fans\u2019 #IHarmU melodies to crowdfund his musical adventures; to teaching masterclasses and confounding music theorists around the globe with chords and rhythms that shouldn\u2019t exist; to improvising circlesongs with musicians on the streets of the world; to simply walking through the rain \u2014 Jacob\u2019s life is full of different colours. He learns new things every day.<\/p>\n","videos":[{"video":"
