Eric Whitacre, a well-known contemporary choral composer invented the virtual choir after being inspired by a young girl who uploaded a video of herself singing the soprano part of “Sleep,” one of his most famous works onto YouTube. In order to participate in Whitacre’s virtual choirs, you don’t need to be a musician, you don’t need to speak English and you don’t need any particularly high-quality audio or video software. It includes every country in the world. Each participant uploads a video of himself or herself singing along to an accompanying track with Whitacre conducting. The videos are then combined and edited by a team of professionals. “Fly to Paradise,” his latest virtual choir piece was the first to be composed specifically for virtual choir. By doing this, he is changing the aesthetic of choral compositions by combining traditional choral singing, electronica, video and digital animation. The emphasis no longer lies on the quality of tone, togetherness of consonances and vowels, and other traditional choral techniques, but focuses on bringing thousands of singers together from over a hundred different countries that would never usually get the opportunity to sing together. The music itself is not as complicated to sing as his other known works composed for professional choirs, and the electronic pop-feel appeals to a wider audience, creating an all-inclusive approach to creating music. His technological approach to choral music allows for a new interdisciplinary and socially focused art form to emerge from the choral community.
