A Virtual Choir

    Look what Eric Whitacre has done. Individual singers followed a conducting video he placed on YouTube, and performed Lux Aurumque, following his rubato, dynamics, phrasing, everything. They posted their individual contributions on YouTube, identifying their voice part in the title. Then, the videos were spliced together to make a virtual choir performance, with the singer's "faces" arranged in choir formation.

    I find it oddly moving.

    Lux, calida gravisque pura velut aurum
    et canunt angeli molliter
    modo natum.

    Light, warm and heavy as pure gold
    and the angels sing softly
    to the newborn baby.
