Little Birds (Whitacre) | Atlanta Master Chorale

Atlanta Master Chorale performed Eric Whitacre's "Little Birds" at our "All Creatures Great & Small" concerts on Friday, October 4 & Saturday, October 5, 2019 at the Schwartz Center for Performing Arts on the campus of Emory University.
Conductor: Dr. Eric Nelson | Accompanist: Jon Easter
Translation:
Noon
Light unblinking, time empty of minutes, a bird suspended in the air.
Later
Light flung down, the pillars awake
and, without moving, dance.
Full Sun
The time is transparent: even we cannot see the bird.
We can still see the color of his song.
