Past oratorio performances include Messiah and The Creation.
My vocal teacher showed the class this in class today and I had to come home and listen to it again because it was just so amazing.
Best thing I’ve ever heard. I’ve been listening to this since 6th grade when I’m my music teacher showed it to us. I cried during it. The next morning I went straight into the library just to use the computer and listen to this. Over and over. And I continued to do that for years. Never got the chance to say thank you!
Also this is my girls account. I don’t have one.
Breathtaking.
Most talented person I’ve ever seen, simply astonishing
Grazie alle tue preziose ricerche storiche ho imparato a conoscere Venezia
Dimostri grandissimo impegno fatto con passione !
Complimenti Maestro !
Sei tra i pochi grandi di questa epoca !
Unbelievably beautiful. Very gifted man.
My lord .. absolutely stunning.
You just blew me away with all your renditions. The fact that you are your own choir is enough to amaze anyone.
Not only is this beyond fantastic, but I love the way you can't keep the smile off your face. ☺
Hi Spencer! I'm a member of next years' Minnesota All-State Choir! Some tips I'd give you: prepare prepare prepare, hydrate well before your audition, sleep, practice sight reading/your solo enough so you're comfortable. You can do it!
I had decided not to make a video for VC4 a couple weeks ago - too much effort, didn't feel like putting a video together. Then a couple days ago I watched this video. It was one of those jaw-drop moments - one of those goosebump-ridden "This is amazing, what the hell am I doing?" moments. I changed my mind, and I've spent all day struggling with technological issues, but I've finally uploaded my video. Thank you so much! You're the reason I decided to become a part of this.
C'mon you know everyone's thinking the same thing: JUST RECORD ALL OF WHITACRE'S VOCAL WORK PLEASE. ALL OF IT!
The best one man's solo I ever heard...
Oh my gosh. Amazing job. I love everything about this recording. Great tone, very clear diction and incredible sound. The balance is so unreal. Seriously, I applaud for you. I wish I was a singer like you. Had a range and looked good doing it :)
Awesome job, Matt.
Why does this not have more views?! This needs more views. :)
i can't stop crying when i hear it! Gorgeus
Just perfectly beautiful.
So beautiful.
This should have more than 24,000 views! :) so much talent
Breathtaking!!
I'm obsessed with this. You clarity in all parts through their runs gives me goosebumps. Incredible chest voice range as well!!! Bravo!
I LITERALLY had to take a vacation from this video because I'd hold my breath the whole time it played....Sir, you are magical.
oh my gosh... shivers.. you are amazing
A man of music...
Ce morceau de WHITACRE est magnifique ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Absolutely brilliant!!!
and I loved your perfomance!
In love with your singing
You are extremely talented my fellow musician! Very nice work!!
Simply exquisite
Always wanted to try videos like this but don't know how from the audio and having different screen at the same time. That was amazing.
My school is putting on "Fly to Paradise" in our choir section and I just wanna say that it's amazing that you can hit bass and tenor notes while also hitting soprano and alto notes! Purely astonishing! 🎶
DUDE SOOO BEAUTIFUL
Listening on repeat.
This is just out of this world.
Pure joy, pure love
I've been brought here by Eric Whitacre's post on facebook

It is so beautiful to see, how much you love to sing it.
I have watched this video about 50 times now. And continuing. :-)
Thank you.
Your voice is bliss indeed
I can't stop pressing repeat!
Innnncredible. I love your expressions here - they make me smile. :)
Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. I sang along :)
This is absolutely beautiful. Your tone is impeccable with all parts. Well done!
That's it. I officially wish I were a man so I could have LOW (and high) notes, like you! Holy freakin crap... There are no words, Matt :) I have no words... *sigh*
WOW! You go, Matthew... this is gorgeous :)
This is absolutely breath taking. You are an incredible human being
This is just outstanding! I remember my All-State conductor,Matthew Oltman, always talking about Chanticleer. He once sang with Chanticleer and was outstanding. Listening to you sing this reminds me of him a bit. Your range is incredible and I hope my passion toward music gets me closer to what you can do! Joshua Habermann, conductor of the Santa Fe Desert Chorale,has also surprisingly been my conductor in past Region concerts. I hope one day my dreams will come true, just like they did to you(:
Wonderful range - beautiful.
I'll be sure to get your "moblie app" :P
But seriously that's impressive, I honestly cannot tell the difference between your chest and head voice.
wow... goosebumps dude.
You gifted man! So beautiful. :) Thank you for sharing...
Absolutely amazing!! So clean and in tune!

I know you get this all of the time (I hope it doesn't make you all big headed :D), but your voice is amazing. And your facial expressions while you sing are wonderful as well. You do this eyebrow thing on the word paradise, and it makes me try to imagine what your picturing in your head. Great job!
Hi Matthew,
Just saw your video, and it sounds amazing... I'm kinda interested in your ways of singing upper and lower voices and hoping to know how do you sing them with ease, without any troubles, and what sort of vocal techniques do you use when singing.
Please tell me how because I'm really, really interested in your singing techniques...
That was amazing (:
Ahhh... beautiful.
