Is making new music/sounds possible?

*I am excluding software created sounds.

Using any combination of instruments in a typical orchestra is it statistically possible to create a song which has never been played?

Now that all songs are being recorded how long until every song or composition is attached to an owner. Will humanity eventually run out of original songs?

Also, why has the invention of new acoustical instruments slowed to a stand still?
