I am pretty sure that that should be possible, if the sound amplitude is strong enough. Of course, it might be difficult to produce such loud sound waves.

How does sound from a vocal cord travel to a glass and shatter it?
The sound waves produced by the vocal chords contain energy and this energy is transmitted though the air to the glass, sound waves are pressure waves. The glass vibrates in resonance with the pressure variations and energy builds up in it to the point where it can shatter.
How is it possible for a sound to shatter glass?
yes a very high pitched voice or sound can shatter glass as seen on myth busters
In particals How do sound waves shatter glass?
If the sound waves are strong enough the shattering of glass occurs when glass vibrates at the same frequency as the sound waves on the outer surface of the glass, but at lower frequencies inside the glass. This causes interference in the waveforms moving through the glass, which stress the glass, causing it to break. This is a different effect than when a single sharp sound, such as an explosion, pushes the glass beyond its breaking point.
Can sound shatter break or crack steel?
yes. it depends on the intensity of the sound
Does sound produce waves?
Yes sound does produce waves. These special waves are called sound waves.

Can sound waves break ice?
Yes, if the sound waves were generated with a frequency that matched the natural frequency of the ice, resonance would occur. If the amplitude i.e. the sound was loud enough, and the frequencies were matched, the ice could vibrate with enough force causing it to shatter.

How does sound break glass?
The vibrations. If a glass exhibits resonance (a clear tone when struck or tapped it exhibits resonance) it can be shattered by using sound waves at that frequency. This causes distortions in the surface which build and cause it to shatter.

What sound waves do?
Sound waves carry sound
Sound waves are examples of what?
sound waves are a example of mechanical waves
Does a soft sound have tall waves?
No, soft sound waves have short waves. Loud sound waves are the ones that have tall waves.
Why are sound waves are described as pressure waves?
Sound waves are described as pressure waves because waves produces pressure by which sound is produces
What does sound travel on?
Waves; sound waves.
