Lux Aurumque by Eric Whitacre performed by TJC Choir

[dpellicori11]

This was an amazing performance!!! Both this choir and the choir i was in had the same problem of rushing a little...... This Choir sounds absolutely beautiful though. AWESOME!!!!

[corvinus444]

That Soprano I solo at the beginning gave me chills, what a stunning voice!

[Hannnarie]

AHHH. Their director used to be my choir director my freshman year in high school. (: (: (: I miss him. This is absolutely beautiful.

[shutyoudown]

But yes, I agree, this WAS a good performance, especially the Sop. solo

[LaughLoveSurfx3]

Wow, the sopranos are amazing. Alot of choirs that do this song the sopranos are just horrible. But these sopranos are so soothing and rich.

Love it.

[jenjen5678]

If sunlight coming through a mosaic tile window in a cathedral had a sound....im pretty sure this would be it.

[jiahchia]

Wow, those sopranos are absolutely -gorgeous-. They sound great :)

[sahsrg10]

after such a great performance you cant possibly be worried about whether they smile or not. that is absurd. the song doesnt seem too happy to me any way. Its all about the emotion in the voice and smile cannot possibly affect the way the singers sing in a positive way. it was a brilliant performance of an amazing song.

[AutobiographicalFM]

We are doing this song in our high school choir =]

[mitsuprod]

Nice voices, amazing piece.. But please smile! :)

[ladysquier]

[xipe83]

Great performance ! especially the dynamic balance between the different voices is very nice.

[kalliereann]

Eric Whitacre is one of the best modern composers. He wrote my senior marching band show, but I was drum major.

The guy rules.

[YKW2]

Superb performance. Those bottom D flats at the end came over very nicely!

[codabowsrock]

WONDERFULL!!!!!!!! Great tone on this, I sang this with my choir for Bach Festival, and the judges geaked out. GREAT JOB, perfect tempo, pitch, volume, EVERYTHING, the only thing I could possibly crotique is the use of music, but that's it really...AWESOME

[miclwilson]

you cannot critique the genius that is eric whitacre! how dare you speak such blasphemy :P j/k, but seriously, never have i heard whitacre music that could be critiqued (if performed well) because he simply rocks...)

[codabowsrock]

What I was saying is that they didn't sing by memory, they used the paper *gasp* jk yeah they're awesome!!!!!

[miclwilson]

[tjcchoir]

Yes, this is the TJC A Cappella Choir in Tyler, Texas. :-)  Thank you for your comment.

[lavelle8686]

Thats awesome! I wish my choir sounded like this, i just went to the wrong place i guess LOL . I would totally transfer there if i knew if tyler had a cosmetology program! I know they have an AWESOME SGA.

[Johnny42819]

just watch that you don't cut the notes off too early or sharply!

other than that it was....

incredible

[MaddyCat24]

Amazing! My highschool select choir is performing this song. I love it!

[cppursell]

Nope, MHS.

A great part of my TJC Choir experience. Oh look, there I am. Hi mom!

[tselea]

Chilling and gorgeous as I remember it; the only piece of music to ever bring tears to my eyes. My choir performed this at our League competition last year and we are going to be performing more pieces by Eric this year!! Yay!

[CHerbek]

You all sound wonderful! I did this piece in my choir at UVA - it's beautiful.
