  • Such a delight to hear this choir singing perfect [un-tempered] intervals. They make Whitacre's dissonances resolve with such total satisfaction!

  • You are so passionate about your work. If it affects you so viscerally that you feel it in you chest, that you might actually pass out. That you want to jump into the essence of the work. It's the mark of a true master. You will become a solid foundation in this branch of music.

  • This guy is just BRILLIANT.

  • gorgeous!

  • He's my favorite composer. And I don't even sing. I wish I could meet him. He seems so down to Earth, so real.

  • I have the album and theres one piece of his music i cant believe he didnt include: Cloudburst

  • So far it looks like 1 person has no idea what amazing music really is.

  • I played this in symphonic band, and at the resolution, where the voices begin to stagger and conclude the song, I felt a moment of true.......Nirvana. There's very few words that describe the moment, and I don't think I'm ever going to be able to explain it accurately.

    Eric Whittacre has an otherworldly ability to compose music that way.

  • How would one get involved in the new Virtual Choir? Or has it already started?

  • wait a second... he's a brilliant composer, well spoken AND hot?
