Assuming that they would be back to their good years of course...
Vocals: Greg Lake & Annie Haslam
Guitars: Steve Hackett & Robert Fripp
Bass: Chris Squire (incl. Backing Vocals)
Piano & Hammond: Keith Emerson
Synths: Tony Banks
Drums: Neil Peart
Percussions: Bill Bruford
Violin: Eddie Jobson
Flute: Ian Anderson
Winds: Mel Collins
not very original I know...
I would also like some vibraphone but I cant think of any players in symphonic prog, although Spyro Gyra's Dave Samuels would do a nice job. Ah, and some harp here and there, but hopefully someone better than Jon Anderson  any suggestions? (otherwise we bring back Harpo Marx)

My Super Group would have the following line-up, If it were possible to get them to work together.
Neal Morse-Vocals, from Transatlantic
Yngwie Malmsteen-Guitar
Mark Robertson- Keyboards, from Cairo
Bill Bruford-Drums
Doug Shreeve-Bass, from Planet X
One could only imagine what type of music that could be made.

I know one, but I don't know if it's symphonic.
Robert Fripp:Guitar, Mellotron, Soundscapes
Jaco Pastorius: Fretless Bass, Bass Guitar
Patrick Moraz:main Keyboards
Bill Bruford:Drums, Percussion
Mel Collins:Saxophone
David Cross:Violin, additional Keyboards
Ian Anderson:Lead Vocal, Flute
It's like a mixture of jazz/fusion, symphonic, prog folk, and metal.

None of these are looking nearly as symphonic as mine
I was thinking of making up a list for an actual orchestra built off string and horn players from prog and jazz bands but decided that was far too much work

First of all: a time machine that would bring the following musicians from the 70s
L.A. Spinetta - Vocals and Guitar
Charly García - Keyboards and Vocals
Neil Murray - Bass
Oscar Giunta - Drums
Ruben Rada - Percussion and Vocals
Leo Sujatovich - Keyboards (mainly synths)
Symphonic meets Fusion meets Latin.

Steve Howe - Guitar
Chris Squire - bass
Carl Palmer - drums
