So even though I don't know much about skyrim I think the theme is pretty awesome, but I thought this brought up the idea about how even though he's not playing an instrument and using his voice as both the vocals and the 'instrumental' part of the song. I guess I just never thought about how A Capella vocal work is just as entangled in music as Bach and Britney (Spears), but in a different way. I mean I know that Cage divorced himself from the idea that you have to play a 'traditional' instrument in order to create music, but I don't readily know what part of philosophy A Capella slips into. It just seems like something to branch out and discuss. I mean would be defined as sound art or something like it if it follows in the vein of Cage considering it doesn't require traditional instruments, but could potentially need a score. Plus, what does that say for improvisation with the human vocal chords especially for something like A Cappella or Beat Boxing.
I mean that's freaking cool and I think it should be considered in the realm of music in some way.
