    Eric Whitacre literally looks like an earthbound Angel.

      How could you even say such a thing? Have you ever seen an angel before? How the heck can you possibly know what they look like, and how do you even know they exist?

    Interesting variation/addition from 03:18 till 04:18. Have not heard that elsewhere. Makes it longer, which is a good thing as I wish it was a longer track.

      It's the Theme of 'Bliss' from his musical "Paradise Lost: Shadows and Wings". He wrote it for the musical in 2001 or 2002 then wrote it into the Wind Orchestra version of Lux Aurumque in 2005, then worked it into his new edition of the choral version only very recently (last year?).

    I love this version so much, it's the one I performed in high school. Beautiful sound, but as someone with perfect pitch, it hurt my heart to hear their tonality slide down half a step over the course of the performance. Still an absolutely gorgeous arrangement well executed!

      The Watermelon At some point, you’re gonna realize how minute it is to complain about dropping pitch in an a cappella performance. Happens all the time in barbershop performances. As a guy with perfect pitch also, if the singing quality itself doesn’t suffer, who cares?

    Une véritable merveille et bien sûr cette version chorale n'a rien à voir avec la version pour orchestre d'harmonie que j'ai eu l'occasion de jouer il y a quelques années. Cette dernière restait quand même une bonne approche de l'oeuvre en restituant assez fidèlement son climat

    Inserted part doesn't sound as same leveled music as the rest of composition originally scored. Harmonies in added part of primary composition are a bit too sweet and kitchy in my opinion and first, original version did not need any aesthetical decline in favour of wider audience or "better" reception.
