Thank you for sharing this video.  It is wonderful!  I'd never heard of Ted.com or Eric Whitacre before and I am so grateful you posted this link.

I'm a  Whitacre fan. I use his "Sleep" from CD as a reference track to "see" how many voices can be clearly discerned.

Thankful for those that liked it. I had not heard of Eric Whitacre before but was captivated by the presentation. I felt the motivation to share it with somebody. The amount of work that went into this is impressive. Hope to see the finished version on a reasonable AV system at some point.
