Virtual Choir 2.0 launched!!

Virtual choir is back!!


World's largest online choir finally launched. This is the second time (see the first Virtual Choir here)  that Eric Whitacre, conductor and composer, throw a project that involves both classical music and technology to mix in one. 'Virtual Choir 2.0' premiered last Thursday April 7 on TED Conference in New York City. In this project, Eric made 2051 people from 58 countries to submit their video, singing his famous composing of 'Sleep', in YouTube.

Eric told CNN about this fun yet emerging project "It's real voices and it's quite beautiful and genuine. It's just fun to do. Millions and millions of people all over the world sing together in choirs and I guess now their voices are finally being heard." 


Eric has signed a record deal with Decca with his album 'Light & Gold' success in the market. Since its releasing, 'Light & Gold' topped many expert music charts in US & UK, including Billboard top classical album.


As I mentioned above, there are more than 2000 voices from 58 countries participating in this project, including Indonesia. See what our Indonesian fellows have got:
