Conspirare is so gorgeous. Their voices combined is heavenly. They have such a unique sound in comparison to most other choirs. This one just.. it sticks with you. It's magnificent. They're all very talented.
This is such an amazing piece. In general, Eric Whitacre is truely a master at composing music, but this just blows me away. The harmonies and melodies countering each other, the men following the women like the wisemen follow the star. This piece is just amazing!
what a stunning! rendition of this favorite of my..Eric Whitacre songs..especially how the musical instruments are integrated with the voices..beautiful timing and sound. Thank you!
You’re hiding, (Nope,) surviving, (Yep.) You’re stubborn, too. (True.) And you’re frightened, (I’m not,) not knowing (What?) your heart. (And you?) I’m trying (To?) to question, (And?) the answer’s near. (Where?) Here: I yearn to soar, (So?) so there has to be much more (No.) Yes, there must be another way. It’s time to (Fly?) That’s right. (Then try explaining slow.) We have to go (Where?) high above (The wall?) of course. (We’d fall!) Perhaps, but then we’d know (Know?) all the things (Like what?) like wings and worlds we knew before. (You’re not making sense, you yearn to soar, but we don’t have wings anymore.) I know but there must be another way. What if all this came true? Pure bliss! What if your wings sailed free? We’d sing! What would I do? You’d lift the moon, And make it spin. I’d inspire a choir of sapphire winds And you? (We’d sing) What song? (Just harmony.) And we’d sing free in perfect harmony, There must be another way. What if this time your dreams they’d rhyme? (Sublime!) What if your voice sailed free? (Rejoice!) And we’d sing free in perfect harmony, There must be another way.

Can't stop replaying the whole song. Everything just sounds fantastic, from the choir to the arrangement, and the accompanists! :D

This is so amazing. I just sobbed with happiness.

Wow! Neat Whitacre piece, but the treatment here is the real treat!
I want to move to Austin for this alone.
This was so beautiful!. The only problem that I have is that I couldn't understand all the words. Does someone have the lyrics?
So come on everybody ^^ let's join the virtual youth choir! We can do that :D
You’re hiding, (Nope,) surviving, (Yep.) You’re stubborn, too. (True.)
And you’re frightened, (I’m not,) not knowing (What?) your heart. (And you?)
I’m trying (To?) to question, (And?) the answer’s near. (Where?)
Here:
I yearn to soar, (So?) so there has to be much more (No.)
Yes, there must be another way.
It’s time to (Fly?) That’s right. (Then try explaining slow.)
We have to go (Where?) high above (The wall?) of course. (We’d fall!)
Perhaps, but then we’d know (Know?) all the things (Like what?) like wings and worlds we knew before.
(You’re not making sense, you yearn to soar, but we don’t have wings anymore.)
I know but there must be another way.
What if all this came true? Pure bliss!
What if your wings sailed free? We’d sing!
What would I do?
You’d lift the moon,
And make it spin.
I’d inspire a choir of sapphire winds
And you? (We’d sing) What song? (Just harmony.)
And we’d sing free in perfect harmony,
There must be another way.
What if this time your dreams they’d rhyme? (Sublime!)
What if your voice sailed free? (Rejoice!)
And we’d sing free in perfect harmony,
There must be another way.
Sorry, cannot understand the words. Not familiar with the lyrics. Don't know what the song is about.
Angels who have lost their wings, trying to get them back, while arguing with other angels ("You're hiding." "no." etc.)
Beautiful choir -horrible recording-great conductor but you don’t put percussion in middle of choir.
