Harry Connick Jr. finds ingenious way to correct audience clapping on the wrong beat

Harry Connick Jr masterfully shows us how to discreetly correct your audience and get them clapping on the right beats of the bar. And it’s so clever...
Boogie-woogie enthusiast, jazz pianist, singer and occasional actor Harry Connick Jr. loves to get his audience grooving.
But here’s some footage with a unique moment of musical class. It comes from what appears to be a sort of made-for-TV concert in the late-90s, featuring his upbeat and bluesy song Come By Me.
Harry Connick Jr. is his usual charismatic self though the verses, giving the audience plenty of trademark grins and hair flicks. The crowd is loving it, and enthusiastically clapping along.

There was a lot of white bread and mayonnaise that had a bit of Cajun seasoning added to it.

Harry Connick jr. is one smart musician. ❤❤❤❤

[@eaqua56]

Certainly

He is a judge on Australian idol this year and his advice is so concise and invaluable. He directed the band to play a series of notes, he could easily be a conductor.

I assume you have to be around music your whole life to feel this and pull this off!

Dave Barry humor writer, once said something like "If you clap on beat 1 and 3, you're Republican, if you clap on beat 2 and 4, you're a Democrat" lol. Connick has more talent and brains in his little finger than most have in their entire body. He is musical gem.

Dave Berry voted for Biden! Hahahaha

Your description beforehand was spot on. There’s no way I would have caught that.

Even hitting the 1 and 3 in the example was painful it felt unnatural when I hear that 1,3 was the European dominant beat not the African it made perfect sense
