Hey girl.

Submit   It's Eric Whitacre.
Look at what I do in my spare time at school while listening to Leonardo Dreams of His Flying Machine.
It’s Eric it’s worth it.

Dynamic expression and technical control…. I freaking LOVE this piece.  Adam Gyorgy clearly wins some sort of award for bossery in my book.

Reblogging myself because this piece always forever.

EDIT: Well I thought I was reblogging myself on my personal blog but I guess not….

Regardless, enjoy a (non-Whitacre) bit of excellent music.

The Hey Eric Whitacre blog needs your help!

We want gifs but we have no idea how to make them!

The only one we have is 

Specifically, it would be fantastic if someone could make a gif of 2:16 to 2:20 of the Water Night VC3 video.

Thanks!

Love,

The Mods

EDIT: We figured out how to make them for free at gifsoup so we got this one:  but clearer ones would be appreciated as well!

EDIT EDIT: The gif isn’t moving! Grr.

Holy jeezus.

I just got back from singing at Carnegie Hall with Eric Whitacre. OH MY LORD. That was friggin amazing. I will never forget walking in and looking up, it just looks like the seats go up for miles. And the acoustics….god, they were to die for. The first note of With A Lily in Your Hand gave me chills every single time. AGHHH WHY CAN’T MY SCHOOL CHOIR SOUND THAT GOOD

You all sounded awesome, thanks for an amazing concert :) I can’t believe you guys pulled that together in two days.

Here’s the whole thing, y’all.

The concert was….

…amazing.

It wasn’t utterly face-meltingly astounding, but it was still amazing.

I may write a better review later when it is not approaching 2 a.m. but here are some brief thoughts for now.

Eric after every piece and during a few:

(Okay not exactly like that but there was a lot of hair-tossing going on.)

I had never heard Animal Crackers Vol. II so during the entire Animal Crackers bit I was like

The audience was cracking up (see what I did there?) as well. I’d recommend a listen!
