"Virtual Choir 5: Lux Aurumque"

"Virtual Choir 5: Lux Aurumque" is a collaborative choral project by composer Eric Whitacre where hundreds of singers from around the world recorded their performances remotely. These individual recordings were then skillfully synchronized and combined into a single, harmonious video. The piece, inspired by light and warmth, showcases the collective power of diverse voices coming together electronically, creating an immersive musical experience without traditional in-person rehearsals. It highlights the possibilities of digital technology in fostering global artistic community and unity through music.
