Some interesting posts from the Facebook wall of composer Eric Whitacre:
American singers 18 and over: Disney has commissioned me to write a new piece for them called "Glow" which will be used as part of their World of Color show this holiday season. Best of all, they want the choir to be made up of auditioned singers in our 'virtual style' so that the final performance will be projected onto water, part of the dazzling light show at Disney's California Adventure park in Anaheim. Just go to worldofcolorhonorchoir.com (http://worldofcolorhonorchoir.com/) for all the audition materials. Woo hoo!
That website has more information about the virtual choir process:
Here’s how it works: Sign Up (http://worldofcolorhonorchoir.com/signup) on this website, learn your part (http://worldofcolorhonorchoir.com/learn), record your audition video and submit it. We will select around 500 submissions and join them together to form an Honor Choir for World of Color – Winter Dreams, a new nighttime water spectacular at Disney California AdventureŽ for the holiday season!
Whitacre also posted a link to a snippet of Glow. You can hear it at this link:
