Lux Aurumque - Eric Whitacre

Lux Aurumque performed by Brigham Young University Singers.

The title means "light and gold" in latin; I tried to make this the theme of the photos.
I recommend viewing in high definition for picture and audio clarity.

Beautiful piece... make sure your speakers are turned up. There are very subtle nuances that make the piece all the more enjoyable.

All photos are original, taken in and around the small town of Winfield, KS

When it's time for me to die, I want this to play as I make my way to heaven.

videos of arrangements by Eric Whitacre are some of the only videos you can find on YouTube where there are no dislikes.

I thought these images looked so familiar! They're from Winfield!

@AngryNoodlz It's because the men are too young in a college choir for this. Listen to the recording by Polyphony and you will be satisfied I think.
