This is the hauntingly beautiful virtual performance of Lux Aurumque (Light and Gold), which is a choral composition in one movement by Eric Whitacre. It is a Christmas piece based on a Latin poem of the same name, which translates as Light, warm and heavy as pure gold, and the angels sing softly to the new born baby. In 2000, Whitacre set a short Latin text for mixed choir a cappella. In 2005, he wrote an arrangement for wind ensemble. The choral version became known through Whitacres project Virtual Choir in 2009. Enjoy!
