Program Notes
Here is an adaptable instrumental arrangement of Whitacre's vocal work Sing Gently, arranged by Verena Mösenbichler-Bryant during the COVID-19 pandemic.
- Program Note adapted from publisher
Ten years ago we created the Virtual Choir with a simple question: is it possible to make beautiful music together, no matter how far apart we are? After multiple virtual choir projects featuring over 20,000 singers from 124 different countries, the answer is a resounding yes.
We continue the journey with a new piece I’ve written especially for the Virtual Choir during these challenging times, Sing Gently. Come join us and let us once again make beautiful music together.
