Light and Gold

Eric Whitacre's music is beautifully chilling. Whether singing or listening to his pieces, you cannot help but be carried into a state of transcendence by his spine-tingling cluster chords and eerie soprano lines. His music shimmers with ethereal majesty and beauty.
I have had the privilege of singing four of his pieces: 'Sleep', 'With a Lily in Your Hand', 'Lux Arumque' and 'Seal Lullaby' and although challenging, they are some of the most rewarding pieces to learn as you are faced with total perfection once they are mastered. 

The two pieces below are the most beautifully scintillating compositions of his, and so soothing to listen to.
