One of the hallmark works by contemporary master Eric Whitacre, this masterpiece features a dazzling text by Charles Anthony Silvestri (text authorof Sleep). The remarkable libretto breve explores da Vinci's dreams of flying and incorporates Italian fragments drawn directly from da Vinci's own notebooks, while the refined music blends elements of Italian madrigal and contemporary style to reflect the elegance of the text, creating an exotic hybrid of old and new. In Italian and English. Absolutely magnificent! Durection: approx 8:45
