As the voices intensify to an incredible climax, the audience is invited to surrender to the moment. Let the soaring music carry you away, echoing the profound Love for those who've journeyed beyond. Dans ce morceau très émouvant, le compositeur et le chœur rendent hommage à ceux de nos êtres chers qui ne sont plus. À mesure que les voix atteignent une rare intensité, le public est invité à lâcher prise et se laisser porter par cet instant d'amour partagé. Conducted by Jad Harjane Composed by Jake Runestad Filmed by DIAZ PRODUCTION at LADABATEK , Tangier Sponsored by THE AMERICAN LANGUAGE CENTER  less

I started this almost immediately after my first choral video went up. I Love these choral multitracks but they are very tedious to edit and very long to record. just so you know, because I know people are going to ask, the soprano solo at the beginning is in the box in the top-left corner as always there is no autotune used. so because of all my hard work I think it would be wonderful if you would all like, subscribe, comment and share it with your friend. it would mean a lot to me :) --Composed by Eric Whitacre--  less

Hoffman. www.stanleymhoffman.com All rights reserved. The poem above is sometimes Called “I Am” due to its repetition of the phrase. Was the poem inspired? The Hebrew name for God, YHWH, means “I am” or “I am that I am.” And there does seem to be someThing magical about the poem, as it was written by a woman who, to our knowledge, had never written a poem before. Mary Elizabeth Frye was an orphan with no formal education. In 1932 she and her husband hosted a young Jewish woman, Margaret Schwarzkopf, who was fleeing the Holocaust. When she received news that her mother had died in Germany, the heartbroken houseguest told Frye in despair that she had never had the chance to “stand by my mother’s grave and shed a tear.” Frye found herself composing the poem above on a ripped-off section of a brown paper shopping bag. She said the words “just came to her.”  less
