Swords into semi-conductors...

In the wake of our global financial crisis I've been thinking about how we can save some money. And I got to thinking about all of these struggling orchestras around the planet. I mean do you know how many people it takes to fill an orchestra pit? How many gold trumpets and Stradivarius violins? Forget about dry cleaning all those gowns and tuxedoes, do you know how much a harp costs? It's a lot of money. So what if we were to rethink this whole dilemma. What if we were to radically cut back on the human cost of running these behemoths? What if we were to replace the cash-strapped orchestras with... a synthesizer!

OK next problem.
