Bobby McFerrin (in Austria most well known not only
for his one-hit-wonder "Don't worry, be happy" but also 
as excellent conductor of the Vienna Symphonic Orchestra)
has discovered an interesting behaviour of any audience
in the world:
People tend to use the pentatonic scale. Some kind
of universal musical alphabet. Watch Bobby McFerrins
experiment at the world science festival (June 2009, 
NYC). Looks like he is using the audience as an
instrument!
