Eternity in an hour de Whitacre amb Cor de Cambra del Palau & Eric Whitacre

Composer and conductor Eric Whitacre joins the Cor de Cambra del Palau to present the programme Eternity in an hour in Barcelona.

This musical proposal brings together the contemporary choral works of Eric Whitacre, known internationally for his textural approach and dense vocal harmonies, with the interpretive precision of the Cor de Cambra del Palau de la Música Catalana. The repertoire moves through choral pieces that explore acoustic resonance and silence, fundamental features of the compositional language of the American composer, who has an extensive discography devoted to sacred and secular vocal music of the twenty-first century.

On stage, the concert combines the direction of the composer himself with the voices of the choir in a format designed for the acoustics of the Petit Palau. The live experience stands out for its attention to harmonic detail and the interplay between the conductor's baton and the choral mass, offering an attentive and unhurried listening. This event is aimed at audiences interested in contemporary classical music, polyphony and current choral sonorities who wish to explore the vocal currents of our time.
