With thanks to our friend Pam for emailing me a link to Lux Aurumque some weeks ago.
Eric Whitacre's website is a feast of glorious, life- and community-affirming music - which is, of course, all the things a choir is. There is nothing we cannot do when we link up. . . especially during darkest hours.
Gorgeous and astounding, Claire, truly a glorious piece of art and music fused, and individual voices from all over the world connecting through time, in spite of space. The words are all wrong. It is beautiful. xo
ReplyDeleteFun how he was able to sequence each into a match.

Dear Melissa, Steve, Antares Cryptos, Mary and Susan -
ReplyDeleteI do like the thought of us being a choir of sorts, too.
("• a group of instruments of one family playing together")
in our tents
under the stars.
When I was a child, struck by the enormity of the world and all that is in it, I found the thought that we're all under the same sky, very comforting. And we are - a miracle, really.
Love to you all,
Claire
