Eric Whitacre's Deep Field - A Tribute in Images

I sang on this one. My name's in the credits at the end. This old lady used my cheapo cellphone and videoed myself in one take and sent it off to Eric. He is way ahead of his time! This video also resides in the Smithsonian Institute!

good.... no advert

Thank - you . ( FRIPPish noise )

I have always enjoyed the music of Eric Whitacre, and this is a brilliant concept, which is quite enjoyable. I did feel however that the sequence of astronomical images faltered from time to time, and I have viewed much smoother transitions in other such inspired videos, but nevertheless an inspirational video :)

Music that beautifully describes the human wonderment when considering the vastness and enormity of the universe......how small we feel...... yet our brains are the most complex thing we know ....and although the universe is vast.....it's processes are simple compared to us

I wonder how awesome this would be at one of the IMAX theaters I'm talkin full volume, full effect,full everything!!!! I'm sitting here shaking thinking about it!!! Oh and to my fellow virtual choir members I am part of virtual three and this one so kudos to all my fellow choir members all over the world!! Yes!!!This is what you call music babies!!! This is what you call music,,. Praise God almighty!!!!!

My name is Sepasi. Question ? Can I use parts of your video, starts and universe. I am doing stars and universe video.

Thank you for your time

WoW!

praise the creator

Wow! More people need to see this... Awe inspiring and well done. 👍😯

The coughing in this vid is nothing compared to when I first heard this and the woman next to me was talking over the entire performance. It took all of my concentration to not commit murder that night...

This music really makes the universe seem terrifying

...AND a cell phone at the end! Goodness me. Other than that, wow.

VIRTUAL CHOIR 5 2018!!!!

MY GOD!!!!!
Genius.

*Coughing* "Oooh, what constalation is that?"

This has potential for a great sci fi movie and when the choir comes in. Goosebumps. Images are fantastic

Thanks! Thanks so much. My all time favourite piece of music. Magical images

If they could record this someplace other than the emphysema ward this would be awesome.

Beautiful.

Amazing how you can repeat a 3 note pattern over 23 minutes and still make it exciting!

I remember laying in the snow, making snow angels with my childhood friend, Theresa. I could hear the snow crunching in my ears as I lifted my shoulders and arms to create the Angel's Wing on the freshly, fallen snow. I could see the clouds partying in the darkened sky, and the wonderment of the beautiful stars twinkling from afar off, like diamonds in black velvet. It all seemed surreal. The cold, bite of the snow beneath me, and the beckoning light that flickered waaaay up there in the cold, deepness of space, saying to me, You are not alone. That's what this music reminds me of.

There's a special place in hell for those who cough during beautiful points in music.

Brilliant.

This one is genius.

gorgeous

Just heard a live recording of this on BBC R3 as I was driving home. Just amazing :)edit Turns out it was this recording :D

For me it's one of the Eric's greatest pieces - I love those intense, ecstatic build-ups. I also wonder if Whitacre was in some way inspired by Gyorgy Ligeti's pieces such as Atmospheres or Lontano. Especially the timbre of woodwind/brass clusters sounds similar to me. Thank you for this upload!

This reminds me of De Natura Sonoris!

I like it. Whitacre chords with a primitive style like Stravinsky
