Three months later , Cosmote (Greeces leading mobile telecommunications provider) uses a choir of mobile, landline phones and laptops which produce a wonderful melody  made out of every possible combination of these three to illustrate that every mix between any two or all three means of communication is now made possible by the Greek company . The film was shot featuring a live choir in the biggest music hall in Athens to provide the best sound and acoustics. The choir was trained by a choreographer and a team of musicians wrote an original music score.

And who can forget the musical TV ad for the Honda Civic? In 2006, Honda released its Choir advertisement, for the UK and the internet. Eschewing the usual source for sound effects, Wieden + Kennedy London has created a two minute commercial for Honda UK and used a choir of a 60-person choir to generate all the sounds in an ad for the new Honda Civic.
