DNA and Music (General)

There was a bit on the Today programme this morning. 
Someone is orchestrating it for 40 voices singing their own DNA. 
It sounded a bit like "Spem in Allium" by Thomas Tallis.
I just located this extract from the BBC site:-0822
Scientists have collaborated with the composers to produce a score in which singers are assigned notes that represents bits of their own genetic codes. So they are singing about themselves. The new piece, Allele, is performed by the New London Chamber Choir.
