    The River Cam

  • Dawn Robinson: Wow, such a beautiful piece for a beautiful place. The cello breaks my heart. My son was lucky enough to take a literature course here and went punting on the river. I can almost feel myself on these banks watching what unfolds. Very inspiring!
  • Sally: Romantic and beautiful, just like Cambridge. Thoughtful too, cant wait to here the complete piece
  • Winter

  • Jana Hart: I would love to do this piece with my choir and have a great Sitar player. Is there a version with piano instead of orchestra? We can't afford an orchestra, unfortunately.
  • October

  • Malik Walker: I am currently a sophomore in high school; I am a member of the Central SugarBear Band, I play the Horn.. After hearing this piece, I have been inspired to take my musical abilities far beyond what was originally intended when I first started off learning the fundamentals. This piece just brings out the best

  • Carlos Mario: I'm Student in Montemorelos, Nuevo León, México, our Synphonic Band may be interest in this music, Where we can make contact and Buy it? For Band And SSA
  • Justin: SO AMAZING. It reminds me of space, the comets, shooting across the night sky, Galaxies colliding with each other, black holes, destroying stars and supernovas, exploding. It is just. so amazing. <3
  • Chris: I loved this piece since the first time my band played it. Every time we're done playing it or listening to the piece, it's like, Aw its over?
  • Kim: Never mind I like the voices with it. After listening to it for a few times it felt empty without it
  • Kim: I also liked this piece without the voices. It gives you a chance to focus on the instruments and not the voices when the dramatic part of the song comes along.
  • Water Night

  • Geoff Rizor: The Orchestral string version.*
  • Geoff Rizor: Will there be sheet music for this available at any time?
  • Zeng Cha: When I first personally experience Eric Whitacre's music I was a sophmore year in high school [I'm a junior now so last year]. It was Lux Aurumque that had activated something in my mind that opened new doors for me. Having been in my high school choir since freshman year, I now listen to everything
  • Lux Aurumque

  • Hannah Froncek: This song.... The way that the harmony and dissonance play against each other, and yet also together is absolutely beautiful. It rings like a chime; a deep, beautiful chime. The concert choir is singing this song this year, but unfortunately, being one of the lowly freshmen, I don't get to be in concert choir until I'm
  • Steve: Both of my daughters were in the all-state band that premiered Lux Arumque, so I must cry every time I hear it. The three-note horn solo is my oldest, and those are the best three notes I ever experienced in a long life dedicated to music and music education. Lux will be played when my
  • Matt Bardin: The all state band I was in played the concert band arrangement of this piece, and it has since become my favorite song to listen to. This music just seems to mesh with my soul in a way nothing else ever does. My favorite thing about the piece though, is that I was able to
  • Zac: What can I say ?. I've recently had a really bad time, losing someone very important to me and your music really helped me. The harmonic progressions and sheer beauty of your compositions is totally mindblowing. At a very emotional time I'd like to thank you for composing such awesome music. Being
  • A Boy and a Girl

  • Cooper Aiken: I think it's so awesome how you paint the text with the chords. In almost every chord there is a major or minor second pairing, like the pairing of two lovers... a boy and a girl. YOU ROCK SIR ERIC!!!
  • David Brewer: What happened to the strings version!?!? It was my favorite thing in the whole world : ( please please repost if you can.
  • Erik: This has become probably one of my favourite pieces of all time, ever. I have put this work on unlimited repeat numerous of times, everytime it ends I want to experience it again and again. If I ever strand on a deserted island, this is the work I want to have with me, it's so
