... is the phrase "let's sing some Christmas songs!" followed by an impromtu performance of eight people singing "Angels We Have Heard on High" in four different harmonies around a piano. It was pretty amazing. We had sopranos, altos, a bass, and a tenor. (I was the "#*%$ soprano" who got to carry the melody. :) Yes, only in college are those things called by such lovely names.)
I just love the amount of musical, artistic, and literary talent that is buried all around Chapin. We had a "talent show" before Thanksgiving in which we had an impromtu sight-reading music performance by our piano performance major and a violin major, which involved a lot of flying pages with notes, but sounded absolutely incredible (and they had never seen the music before!), a salsa/rhumba by Suz (soooo good, I was stunned), a flooring acapella duet, and some original, very well written and composed, songs. And this is what these people do for FUN!
