Whitacre, Eric - Five Hebrew Love Songs

In this suite – inspired by a trip to Switzerland – each song is a “postcard,” capturing lush, romantic moments in full. The songs are dedicated to Jerusalem born Hila Plitmann – poet of the beautifultext, and the composer's wife. The suite is scored for SATB chorus with either string quartet accompaniment or piano and violin.
