I am blessed to have been able to sing Sleep under Eric's direction for 4 different performances and several other workshops. It's an amazing experience every single time. And to have this with orchestration adds another dimension.

Brings back memories, thanks for doing some Eric Whitaker. About 13 years ago he called a little wind band, 100 piece of locals, in Tallahassee to open his music transcribed for wind band. My wife played in the group and I got to sit in for the premiere at the Sydney Opera House directed by Eric himself. Amazing experience! Love the channel Jeff!

Stunningly beautiful. I have never heard dissonance used so exquisitely.

Beautiful! Starting from 4:10 remembers "Who Wants To Live Forever" (Queen), from the "Highlander" soundtrack. .

I am not religious, but that was the voice of God. Very moving chord changes and overlaps in melody. If I was a conductor, stuff like that would reduce me to tears.

Theres an interesting story told by the composer about the lyrics - as originally desired, denied by a poet's estate, reinvented by necessity and triumphed.

This is good, yet I prefer the acapella version by the eight members of Voces8.

Who did the orchestration?
