YouTube Symphony Orchestra
This has completely slipped me by (until now), but Youtube are in the process of putting together the world’s first virtual symphony.
The deal is simple, download the music, practise (there’s even a condctor for you to rehearse with ;)), then upload a video of you performing.
The best will be invited to perform at New York’s Carnegie Hall in April 2009.
The music is compose by Tan Dun (of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon fame) and you can see a video of the pro’s (London Symphony Orchestra) performing the piece in October below.
Quite a cool little project, it’ll be interesting to see how it goes!
