During the last decade, Eric Whitacre became a composer noticed for its music for choir and its educational music. Some of its plays for choir became particularly popular within the vocal whole high school and university in America.
Its most famous work is the Virtual Choir, a digital project that combines thousands of user-submitted videos into a single stunning choral performance. This global choir transcends geography, class and background: it is a testament to the power of leadership and technology to foster creativity and connection, even in the most challenging circumstances.
Eric Whitacre began this project with first try in 2009 and a second one in 2010. The video “Lux Aurumque”, with a virtual choir of 185 voices of 12 countries was qualified as “musical experience even better than waited”, and was viewed more than 1 000 000 times during the first two months after release.
It’s second project of 2010 named “Sleep” 2.0 began in 2010 and the process of video download came to an end on 2011. 2 0531 individual videos were received from 584 countries, which represents a new world record for an online virtual choir.
Eric will speak about the rise of organic humanistic online communities, born through the Virtual Choir and the relationship this has to the creative process.

Thanks for your gift of music
C'est très beau , Mais les chants Grégoriens ont été les premiers à découvrir différentes vibrations des voix .
Ceci dit ce qui exceptionnel c'est qui l'a rassemblé dans différents partie du monde des voix , la voix est un instrument incroyable , le rassemblement de toute ses voix est aussi pour la paix même si ce n'est pas son but , il faudrait partager au monde se beau travail de cette recherche vibratoire . C'est vraiment très beau .
+Sylvie Lopez merci Sylvie, nous sommes totalement d'accord :) N'hésitez pas à partager autour de vous !
Oui, les Français ont inventé la polyphonie.

What degree is 7 years long? What did he take?
Alex G H Sansbury - For those of us who "believe" in the acquisition of knowledge vs just collecting credentials, true knowledge and learning is never-ending and always growing. What does it matter as to how long it takes to earn a degree when attainment of the degree is NOT the true "end" of gaining all the knowledge associated with the field of study? Peace to you Alex, keep learning!
An interesting administrative accomplishment. But the music is uninventive and architecturally inert.
And WHO are YOU? With a "name" like Jerdon's BLADDER, it's obvious that your JEALOUS donkey is destined only to urinate on the INNOVATION of others! That must be the only way you could "leave your mark" on the world.
