Defying Gravity: The Music of Stephen Schwartz and Eric Whitacre
Sunday, March 30, 2014 at 2pm
An accomplished composer and conductor, Eric Whitacre has quickly become one of the most popular and performed composers of his generation. The Los Angeles Times has praised his compositions as "works of unearthly beauty and imagination, (with) electric, chilling harmonies"; while the BBC raves that "what hits you straight between the eyes is the honesty, optimism and sheer belief that passes any pretension. This is music that can actually make you smile." Whitacre conducts over 250 voices in his annual concert collaboration with Distinguished Concerts International New York.
