I read this, and thought, "Wow, cool!"
So I tried it and thought, "oh, well."
Nope, you cannot currently start a new song while seated on Test Server. I did verify with a caster friend that the change to ducking is still in place, but I sat down, and tried to start a song, and got the usual message "You must be standing to cast a spell."

Yup. Sorry about that. The way songs work hasn't changed. You'll still be able to start one up before sitting, but you won't be able to start them while sitting.

Apparently bards have problems with their diaphragms that prevent them from singing while seated.
So much for the great oral tradition.
