6:07-6:19 I can only imagine what it must have been like for him to conduct this...completely immersed in his own beautiful creation.

Chills every time at 4:24 when the Sopranos get to their pinnacle. My university performed this piece in a similar choral setting. Love Eric Whitacre as a composer! Great piece! :D

I want to perform this piece so bad. Hopefully my chamber choir director will decide to bring it back before I graduate.

@margotlorena1 Oh, I have only played the instrumental version, so I was unaware that there was dialogue in it.

[@Littleoldmeluvsu]

I was under the impression it was composed for choral and it was re-organised for instrumental
