Product description
In this suite – inspired by a trip to Switzerland – each song is a “postcard,” capturing lush, romantic moments in full. The songs are dedicated to Jerusalem born Hila Plitmann – poet of the beautiful text, and the composer's wife. The suite is scored for SATB chorus with either string quartet accompaniment or piano and violin.
Eric Whitacre (*1970) is an American composer, conductor and choirmaster. He is one of the most prominent and popular contemporary composers of choral music. His work is known for its unique sonic signature, which uses rich harmonies, subtle dissonances and layered structures to create a dreamlike atmosphere. Whitacre is also a pioneer of digital music projects - he is particularly famous for his “Virtual Choir”, which connects thousands of singers from around the world via the internet.
