Another TED talk I loved

I am clearly a sucker for the talks with performances, but this talk from a bit over a month ago really worked for me. If all the talking in the beginning bugs you, wait for the scenes of the virtual choirs; they are worth it.

It touched me deeply. I hope it works for you, too.

Whitacre is a great composer - I've played several large ensemble brass arrangements of "Sleep".

That's cool, Todd. I'd love to hear them.

Very cool, Todd! Thanks.

Glad you liked it. My friend did the arrangement specifically for our group so it's a one-off.

I quite enjoyed it. Your friend did a great job.
