Pure Genius

Eric Whitacre never fails to inspire with every composition. Whether with the innocent intimacy of "Seal Lullaby", the grandeur and beauty of "Sleep", or the haunting and enchanting dissonance of my favorite- "Water Night". One can so easily be taken to a new land in "Five Hebrew Love Songs" or swept into the mind and adventure of Leonardo in "Leonardo Dreams of His Flying Machine". And at last, a recording of "Nox Arumque" to couple with Whitacre's unforgettable "Lux Arumque". Finally these in one place, sung by a choir of his choosing- in the way he intended them to be.
I'll always remember the first time I heard a Whitacre piece- the colors and emotions it brought to the imagination were staggering. So buy the album! And just close your eyes, open your mind, and be ready to get swept into a timeless world of beauty.
Well done, Mr. Whitacre.

Incredible singing but the mix sounds terrible

I think Eric Whitacre and his singers have done some inspiring work in this album, but I can't get past the poor mastering of the tracks. They sound overly-processed; I hear a constant quaver in the sound, like there's a compressor or a noise gate turned up too high. It's very distracting from the gorgeous singing and superb musicality happening. Strangely enough, this quaver isn't present in the live streaming of this album linked on his website. Ultimately, fantastic singing, but I'm disappointed with the mix.

Douglas High school baby!!

I keep wondering how a guy from gardnerville nevada makes music that sounds like this? i remember walking through the halls with eric in high school and its hard to imagine him composing music!! kudos to you eric and keep doing your thing!!
