I accompanied this song in my high school choir this fall and will be singing it in Illinois All-State Honors Choir at the end of this month. Eric Whitacre's music is absolutely perfect.

@kathrynkrieger Awwww! No way!!! IMEA is doing this piece!? I hope you're doing the SSA version! I am so jealous! I wished we would have done it when I was in IMEA way back when! (I'm from Illinois, myself) Thanks for telling me- I wouldn't have known had you not said something! Best of luck! Wish I could be at the concert but I'll be in school and too far away from Peoria to make the trip! :)- I just checked the list of all of your rep on the website- WOW! Both choirs have great literature!

Impressive! The diction is slightly different from the one im learning though

[lilbic20]

@MOLLYDOLLIGHT Thank you so much! :)

Hey, Kel! My treble choir did this song last year. I had the alto part. Such a wonderful and interesting song :)

[lilbic20]

@TripleThreatJay That's awesome, Jay!!! Yeah, I absolutely LOVE this piece! <3 <3 Soooo amazing!

[ShelbyDucote]

Can't wait for all-state this year<3

My high school did this song last year. ♥ I loved it. Eric Whitacre's music is... genius. There's no other way to say it. We made our director cry. Your sound is spectacular.

My choir is doing this song for the spring concert. I have the soprano 1 part. It's so pretty!!!!

[fictionjunnkie]

[kathrynkrieger]

[rachelmae007]

@vanillaburry89 Uhm, Rudyard Kipling writes all his poems specifically for Eric Whitacre's use...

[gingerstendtoSNAP]

Eric Whitacre is perfection. Not only is the THE most attractive composer to ever exist, but his work is just so entrancing. The atonal qualities and the strange harmonies he puts in there are just amazing. Did I mention how hot he is? My director has a picture of him on her desk, signed. She treasures it.

Our women's choir is performing song at Carnegie Hall in May. It really is such a wonderful piece.

@lilbic20 We are doing the SSA version! I do love the SATB version as well though.
