A Deep Dive Into The Sacred Veil -- Part 1

In many ways The Sacred Veil is my most ‘intentional’ work. Every note, every gesture is written in service of the story and its themes of love and loss. Here I talk about the musical representation of the “veil”, and how it is woven through the piece.

Eric is one of my favorite and dopest composer/writers I know❤ Maybe he'll come back to MN while I'm singing with the MN Chorale for a second round. (Please?)

[@EricWhitacre]

Would LOVE to come back.

I'm super interested in seeing this piece in the same room as the singers. LIVE. Is there a resource that would alert me to local performances?

[@DianaDash]

love it. so eager to hear the full piece in person, I hope it's performed in NYC soon

[@earth2jennyl]

I love this piece. I have read all your notes on each movement, but hearing you talk about it with the piano brings a greater depth. Thank you.
