About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
I actually love his music so much and I just found this and wow I am so amazed by him
His music is transcendent. To paraphrase Esenvalds, " when you find something of beauty, stop, and pay attention".
I have sung his "Rivers of Light," and found it radiant. I've never seen the Northern Lights, but through his choral music I have heard them! Thank you, maestro.
If you haven't seen the Trinity College video of Only in Sleep you really need to
Had the chance to have a masterclass with this man. He is brilliant and amazing at capturing what is in his mind, and finding ways to explore with the human voice. Truly inspirational.
I first heard music when I first listened to his piece “Stars” such a good piece
It's really nice to see the recognition for his amazing works. I really love his composition, especially for St. Luke Passion. Part 8: "Does that lamp still burn" is beautiful beyond words
What a beautiful mystical song to Northern Light!! ♪ 🥲😇🥲 Thousand thanks 🎶🙏 I love also his piece for chorus „The Heavens‘ Flock“. 🥲✨😇💫🥲
He is amazing , I love his music
I love his music!
After watching this and seeing the Trinity College video, I am even more encouraged to seek out the Aurora.
An article in the Sun on 12/30/2016 states sound traveling through the power lines was spooking the local people. Locality: Sweden
For poetry...listen on; for science, @ 13:00 Eriks says they do not know the sound.
Ak, Dievs, cik brīnišķīgi !!!
