What I feel good it's the number of singers to gether. It's a very good cultural symbol.

But I feel there is no more attenuation. More there is body, more attenuation is important.

Merging of multiple instruments and multiple voices is a very difficult work. It requires some sound cancellation systems between sets of singers. Else sound saturation take over the effect of sounds addition.
