The taunt is awesome but...
I love the idea but there are few things that do bother me a bit:

1. Mainly the fact that taunt by itself doesn't sound good on their own, specifically the Pyro one.
2. The choice of Medic's instruments. I think he should be the one playing the accordion since classes like Scout, Engie, Sniper have the instrument they used in their own solo taunts, so why not Medic?

That's all overall this taunt rocks, and it would definitely be fun to see what tunes you can make if you manage to gather some friends or strangers to make song.

Because spy doesn't have his own instrument and when we thing of the accordion we usually thing France, it's the one place with most use out of it and I thing France might be its birth place as well

You could also make him use a violin which fits his style more, but if we are going to for stereotypical side he could use a musette.

Because even if accordion is used used a lot in a European countries especially from Balkan Region. Germans are also known for accordion as well.

In addition to this, for the taunt to sound nicely in-game, it would have to be timed perfectly by all the classes, which is practically barely possible. It would be nice if taunt was somehow servertick-based and will play the melody from the place according to a tick count.

I feel like the big problem id have is that when trying to play them together you kind of get stuck with everything being out of sync. If this were to get added i think they would have to provide a thing for them to just throw into the code that makes it start when the other mercenaries around loop restarted, probably provide an animation that shows them like counting the beats with their hands or something before they come in on the downbeat of the first mercenary to do the taunts loop.

Either way though i do also agree with what your saying, since theres no chance youl _always_ be in a group
