Written by admin on . Posted in Favorite Choral Videos

Eric Whitacre’s Virtual Choir 3 will perform his much-loved a cappella piece, Water Night.

We welcome existing Virtual Choir members and encourage singers from around the world to join together across the internet to create a beautiful, poignant film which will be released online in Spring 2012. This time, we are also going develop the film into a powerful and visceral audio-visual art installation to be seen and heard in cities across the globe.

Watch Eric’s introductory video and then get started. Good luck and thank you.
