OMG.
This is a BRILLIANT idea!

A game changer for me…
But the emperor has no clothes.
Whoever is the Vision of the FIRST Internet Symphony is absolutely brilliant.
“Symphony” is a term from the Ancient Greeks and means “sounding together.”
Hmmm…
Also, “Symphony” is a term from the Ancient Greeks and means “social networking”
You�ve solved the problem I�ve been struggling with for years � LIVE Internet music ensemble performance.
It�s simple� un-bundle time from the equation.
Duh!
It�s so simple, yet I always found TRUE real-time to be the barrier.
There is still a time �tether� and it�s a constant. A live conductor (and silent audio track).
Simple, yet brilliant.
Ummm�
One MAJOR friggin flaw, though�
The composition chosen for this project was composed by Tan Dun.
The choice is a big mistake compared to choosing Mozart Jupiter Symphony or Beethoven’s 5th (or 9th) as the “FIRST” Internet Symphony (”Eroica” in the sub-title was obviously borrowed from Beethoven’s 3rd). I suspect you are a brilliant composer, Mr. Dun, but compared to Wolfgang and Ludwig, you suck. :-S
If it WERE Mozart or Beethoven, I would certainly be tempted to pull out the old bassoon and give it a run.
