This is extraordinary. I do piano content as well and it’s nice seeing different styles of music. It’s great to have more ideas from different people

I had tickets to this show as part of my symphony Summerfest package and ended up getting sick. I'm even more sick that I missed it!

Awesome song !

I’ve loved this song forever. So happy to know the story behind it!

Amazing that he puts this arrangement together in his head, on the fly, in 10 mins.

Conductor....who is this madman?

Always brilliant - never seen another famous musician attempt to do what he does - live

This is why Ben is so great. Fricken brilliant.

More cowbell!

This is one of the greatest things I’ve ever seen

It's great that Ben is getting some air time and recognition for his talent

This is one of the things that confidence can do to a human. Absolute power.

99% of women would marry Ben Folds. Depending on how long a divorce takes.

This is literally creating more entropy than any song that ever happened at a faster rate. And we can computer model it. (Sorry I wasn't gonna tell u how I knew, I lied cause I realized no has a chance of understanding that) 2.4% chance maayyyybe. but prolly .24% or less

I know nothing about this, lol. And make them play the best thing of their lives. I wish I knew that trick. Well. I do, but you aint getting it

He is the best thing ever made in the history of man. It is 1 of 1.

Delightful 😊

I NEED MORE COWBELL!!!

this was breathtaking. wtf

I loved his work in over the hedge

I say GOD DAMN! Ben is so damn talented. Who else composes on the spot with orchestras? Induct this man into the Music hall of Fame YESTERDAY!

This is his best "on the spot" musical performance IMHO.

Oh how cool! I love that!

Unbelievable 🤔🙄😇 Fantastic 👏 ❤👏

Three years later and this song still lives rent-free in my head

Band shell E Expo 67

Genius

This amazing masterpiece starts at 15:48, for the peeps without the patience to hear it being created on the fricking spot!!!

W H A T ? ? ? ? ? Ben Folds, how did I lose track of what you've been doing? I have so much to catch up on!

That trumpet came through smoothly first time around 💯 👌🏽 🔥

I need Ben Folds to surpass Hans Zimmer Ludovico Ennuadi while composing live. Still waiting him to drop another crazy song like these new spaces are all designed to be flexible! That one i have watched like 1000 times always refreshing.

I’d love to see all the people in the comments section saying what he’s doing is easy to link to their improved orchestra below… I’ll wait

This is maybe his best improv ever lol

Dear Know-It-All Woman, don't be the way you are.

The trumpet made a good come back🤣🤣🤣

Half way through and it's starting to sound like an awesome Bond theme.

Happy new year all. I'm back for my annual watch of this video.

Ben Folds is ah-MAH-zing. His song “Rockin’ the Suburbs” is satire as art form.

What a gift. Their very own theme song. Ben is unrivaled. Amazballz for sure!

That sax had been waiting their entire life for that moment and preformed spectacularly

oh, the hard days of my disaffected youth on the mean streets of Cary...

It's just so fun to watch :)

where i have been all this time ... where i wassssssssss , this is taking my soul up to the sky

I can envision Link and the Mod Squad walking down the street...

Ben. You are a musical GOD sir. Totally hearing CHiP's, Fantasy Island, Dynasty, Dallas and Shaft in this orchestration. Not saying he ripped anyone off, its where the music takes me. Outstanding.

This should have millions of views. This man is amazing.

I've watched like 50 of these Ben Folds improvs.... this may be the best. Hilarious and rocking.

Finally includes horns

Cary sounds rough!!!!
