2:28 is - BY FAR - the best balancing of that iconic chord of any performance or recording of this song I've heard. I imagine that's exactly how Whitacre wants it to sound - a cluster chord so tightly tuned and balanced like that shimmers in a way nothing else in music can capture
OCTAVIO PAZ!! they are reciting an Octavio Paz poem 😭😭 I love him and this goes with him, his intelligence was sent from above, fell from the universe and these sounds are his echoes.... ANGEL voices
I'm angry... Because I sent that music to all my best friends and nobody appreciated it ... :) I just don't get it. How someone can't see (hear) the beauty of that music. I wish I had friends with similar sensibilities as me... :(
Someone know what kind of music is this? I mean to the musical form or the genre or the music style. This use an interesting harmony that I'm looking for.
Eric Whitacre's wikipedia page refers to his style as "pandiatonic" clusters "usually arranged in successively increasing or decreasing density. Whitacre achieves this growth and decay by splitting voices divisi-in one case up to 18 parts. These sonorities can often be read as seventh or ninth chords, with or without added seconds and fourths. Whitacre makes frequent use of quartal, quintal, and secundal harmonies, and is also known for his use of unconventional chord progressions." Don't know if that helps, but it's interesting to know!
Damn, the balance in the choir is phenomenal. the basses O.O love em.

This performance is absolutely breath taking. Learning this song in high school was such an amazing experience.

This is true ASMR material.
Ok, now can I have my breath back, please?
My choir is doing this song for the first concert of the year. Let's go BWHS Meistersingers!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOW
What an amazing room....great choir accoustics
This is beautiful. I have no words.
AMaziN
THIS THE BEST VERSION OF WATER NIGHT😍😍😍 THE FORTE AND LEGATO ARE AMAZING!!!
Goosebumps. I definitely would love to learn this piece. Whitacre and Runestad are some of my favorite composers for modern choral music.
Great blend and balance...I love Whitacre's music, and your group delivers it beautifully. Bravo!
Beautiful!
stunning
*Sigh*
So...
Relaxing...
Yaaaasss! Great werk!!
My Lord ❤
Those basses :0
2:33 mmmm
3:30 - 3:36
This sounds so good when played by a band. We’re playing it for our marching band show
Do you know where you got the music for the band arrangement?

You're not alone. We are here with you even though you do not know us.
Let me be your friend
You deff need new friends
Exactly what I feel too 😭 when listening to such beauty we can't help but share... But most of our friends just like shallow pop musics

Nick Almand That's exactly what I was looking for! Pandiatonicism! Thank you very much Nick! 😁
I can listen to Beethoven for hours and no two chords sound the same. I think there's an emperor's new clothes at work here.
