You’ve seen a one man band, but how about a complete symphony orchestra?

Ben Morfitt, a composer from England, recently created in a music video of one of his new, original songs, in which he plays every instrument while also acting as conductor.

The piece was written for a new cartoon he created called “Pegul,” which he describes in the video’s caption.

You could say he is a man of many talents.

Watch the video above, and you can check out more of his music on SoundCloud.

That's precisely what the Danish National Chamber Orchestra did. In a stunning feat of collective masochism, the orchestra gathered on stage to play a rendition of Tango Jalousie by Jacob Gade, with each member pausing briefly to pop a Bhut Jolokia "ghost pepper." Can they hold it together and play a beautiful tango while their mouths are on fire?

This kid is only three!
