Eric Whitacre-Composer Extraordinaire

While driving home from Grace's ROCK (Rimrock Opera Chorus for Kids) concert last night, Gregg and I heard an interview on the Pops channel. It was Eric Whitacre. I only recognized his name because Grace has sung about 3 songs composed by him in the last year. Each one uniquely different and strikingly beautiful. He really is amazing. Check out his virtual choir singing SLEEP-absolutely spellbinding. (The Meistersingers-one of the choirs Grace is in at West High School-sang this at Christmas while Eric Whitacre directed them via computer-really cool.)
