This is an interesting arts feature about A Cappella singing groups who dissect songs into individual parts and instruments and put them back together with just voices. The production values are high, with location sound, vox pops, interviews, and of course, the music. Producer Catie Talarski delivers the well-written narration, and the piece is nicely edited and well mixed. A minor suggestion would be to give the listener a taste of the finished music product near the front of the piece, instead of waiting until the end, so the individual instrument vocals are put into context. Overall, it is an interesting and well-produced feature that would work well in any magazine program.
