Linux laptop orchestra reprograms musical conventions

,----[ Quote ]
| irginia Techâs newest musical ensemble has a 
| problem with one of its songs.
| 
| A faint cough can be heard on the track 
| âCitadel,â briefly interrupting soprano 
| graduate student Chelsea Craneâs vocals. It 
| seems only the most discerning listeners would 
| take notice of the small blemish, but to 
| composer Ivica Ico (pronounced Ee-zo) Bukvic, 
| it is deafening.
| 
| âIn a song so serene, a cough sounds like an 
| explosion of nuclear proportions,â he 
| announces to the students in the room. His 
| playful tone belies what the perfectionist 
| composer considers a serious problem.
