You know what I want to see? Or rather, hear? An a capella orchestra.
I think that would be seven shades of cool, hearing classical music made for symphonies preformed a capella. Think about it, if you got together a sufficiently large group of good voices, and had them all produce the sounds the different instruments would have made, it would sound awesome.
The “Four Seasons” sung by well trained voices. “Jeux d’enfants”, hummed. The “1812 Overture” preformed without instruments. They could do the cannon by jumping simultaneously or something. If they all had tap-dancing shoes.
All right, there might be a few kinks to work out, but even so, seven shades of cool!
I’m really jazzed about this idea now. A capella symphony! I can’t believe it hasn’t been done yet! Maybe it has been. It should have been. And I should get to listen to it.

Yeah, I’d love that, too.
We should get Ted on it.
