Description
Eric Whitacre's "Sleep" is a beautiful choral composition that explores the tranquility of nature. Originally written for chorus, it was adapted by cellist Jeffrey Zeigler into an arrangement for cello octet. The piece features the poem "Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening," but due to permission issues, poet Charles Anthony Silvestri set new words to the existing music. This unique solution allowed Whitacre to bring his vision to life in a way that was both innovative and captivating. This transcription of "Sleep" for cello octet is a must-have for any cellist looking to expand their repertoire or simply enjoy some beautiful music.
