No one&#8217;s dominating\u2014it&#8217;s pure collaboration, stacking emotion note by note, pulling the whole venue into their orbit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And right then, it hits peak live-show sorcery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The audience dives in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It begins with a handful of voices\u2014hesitant, feeling out the moment.
