The climax of this piece, in this performance, is the single loudest acoustic music I’ve ever heard. The podium was actually shaking. Performed brilliantly by the @royalphilorchestra. | Eric Whitacre

✨ Getting conducted by Eric Whitacre in person is one of those lifetime checklist moments, the kind every choir kid secretly dreams of. For so many singers, his music is the reason they fell in love with choral music. Personally, ‘Water Nigh’t is one of those pieces that completely changed my life, and hearing it in this setting is just unbelievable. St. Jacobs Vokalensemble and Storkyrkans Kammarkör joined forces under the direction of Eric Whitacre himself, live in Stockholm and the result fel

Amazing rehearsal today with the Brussels Philharmonic and Flemish Radio Choir. We are doing concerts of my Christmas music this weekend in Gent and Brussels. Part of the concert is my little chamber opera The Gift of the Magi, which has a big show-stopping song that sounds like The Andrew’s Sisters on steroids. After rehearsal I worked with their superb young percussionist, Gideon, and together we rewrote the drum part. It’s really cooking now! @brusselsphilharmonic @vlaamsradiokoor @gideonvanc

The terrific @grootomroepkoor! This was my third project with them, truly a joy to work with this magnificent choir. This time @laviniameijer joined us on harp, playing her own excellent compositions and performing four of my works on harp: The Seal Lullaby, Goodnight Moon, Sing Gently, and Home (@cellobowmania beautifully played the cello part on Home). The pieces sounded so magical with Lavinia on harp! We also performed my All Seems Beautiful to Me, Leonardo Dreams, Cloudburst, and When David

Accidental Blade Runner! Was building some sounds on The Eighty, the remarkable CS-80 VST by @xilslab and stumbled into Vangelisville. (Actually, if Vangelisville was a real place it’s the only place I would want to live). | Eric Whitacre

There is so much to unpack, compositionally, in these few measures. First, the altos and the sopranos have spent the entire piece dancing together in major and minor seconds. (In my mind the sopranos represented the boy in the story and the altos represented the girl). It is only in this moment as they sing “saying nothing“ that they move to unison, representing the boy and the girl finally uniting in death. Then the tenors take the melody from the sopranos and altos and lead with the word “neve

Working on my new piece for choir and electronics, “Eternity in an Hour.” There is something about the sound of the @somasynths Lyra-8 (the orange synth I’m playing) that is so hauntingly beautiful — ancient and futuristic at the same time. | Eric Whitacre
