Acapella - without instrumental accompaniment; A cappella music is vocal music or singing without instrumental accompaniment, or a piece intended to be performed in this way. A cappella is Italian for like in the chapel (music); the term is due to restrictions on the use of instruments in medieval churches. It is often misspelled as a capella, which is derived from the Latin spelling, or even acappella.
We attended one such concert this evening - performed by a group of Stanford students who call themselves Raagapella. They are such a hit that they will be performing with Rahman on July 16th in Hollywood Bowl! Rahman is performing at Hollywood Bowl baby. Quite amazing, I have to say. He never ceases to amaze me. I guess July is going to be a busy month - first week is Seinfeld's show and the next one is Rahman. There's also July 4th weekend.
