When talk show bands play an impromptu song, how do instantly play in the same key?
In: Other
They are each great musicians, so they know the formula and progressions of a song just by knowing it or hearing it a couple of times. All it takes is the band leader to shout out the key to everyone and they’ll each know their parts well enough to make the song recognizable.
My bands in the past would get requests and make the shapes of letters with our fingers and hands if we weren’t able to shout it out.
