Bliss - sung by Matthew Curtis (Eric Whitacre - Virtual Choir 4) 

My vocal teacher showed the class this in class today and I had to come home and listen to it again because it was just so amazing.

Breathtaking.

Best thing I’ve ever heard. I’ve been listening to this since 6th grade when I’m my music teacher showed it to us. I cried during it. The next morning I went straight into the library just to use the computer and listen to this. Over and over. And I continued to do that for years. Never got the chance to say thank you!

You just blew me away with all your renditions. The fact that you are your own choir is enough to amaze anyone.

Most talented person I’ve ever seen, simply astonishing

Not only is this beyond fantastic, but I love the way you can't keep the smile off your face. ☺

Unbelievably beautiful. Very gifted man.

Oh my gosh. Amazing job. I love everything about this recording. Great tone, very clear diction and incredible sound. The balance is so unreal. Seriously, I applaud for you. I wish I was a singer like you. Had a range and looked good doing it :) Awesome job, Matt.

Grazie alle tue preziose ricerche storiche ho imparato a conoscere Venezia Dimostri grandissimo impegno fatto con passione ! Complimenti Maestro ! Sei tra i pochi grandi di questa epoca !

My lord .. absolutely stunning.

The best one man's solo I ever heard...

i can't stop crying when i hear it! Gorgeus

Just perfectly beautiful.

So beautiful.

In love with your singing

I'm obsessed with this. You clarity in all parts through their runs gives me goosebumps. Incredible chest voice range as well!!! Bravo!

Hi Spencer! I'm a member of next years' Minnesota All-State Choir! Some tips I'd give you: prepare prepare prepare, hydrate well before your audition, sleep, practice sight reading/your solo enough so you're comfortable. You can do it!

Ce morceau de WHITACRE est magnifique ! ! ! ! ! ! !

C'mon you know everyone's thinking the same thing: JUST RECORD ALL OF WHITACRE'S VOCAL WORK PLEASE. ALL OF IT!

My school is putting on "Fly to Paradise" in our choir section and I just wanna say that it's amazing that you can hit bass and tenor notes while also hitting soprano and alto notes! Purely astonishing! 🎶

This is the most magical thing I’ve ever had the immense pleasure of listening to

This is just out of this world.

Really nice to listen to.

You are extremely talented my fellow musician! Very nice work!!

Always wanted to try videos like this but don't know how from the audio and having different screen at the same time. That was amazing.

I had decided not to make a video for VC4 a couple weeks ago - too much effort, didn't feel like putting a video together. Then a couple days ago I watched this video. It was one of those jaw-drop moments - one of those goosebump-ridden "This is amazing, what the hell am I doing?" moments. I changed my mind, and I've spent all day struggling with technological issues, but I've finally uploaded my video. Thank you so much! You're the reason I decided to become a part of this.

Amo tu version! Felicitaciones!

That was wonderful!

this is amazing!!!!!!!!!

This should have more than 24,000 views! :) so much talent

This is just soooo beuatiful....! *___*

Absolutely amazing!! So clean and in tune!

Innnncredible. I love your expressions here - they make me smile. :)

It is so beautiful to see, how much you love to sing it. I have watched this video about 50 times now. And continuing. :-) Thank you.

Why does this not have more views?! This needs more views. :)

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. I sang along :)

thanks for sharing it! Great rehearsal track!

This is absolutely breath taking. You are an incredible human being

This is absolutely beautiful. Your tone is impeccable with all parts. Well done!

Oh My God--I did not abbreviate that as I mean it...This is incredibly beautiful. His soprano is better than mine, and I am a girl, first soprano fish!!

What an amazing voice, sir! Please upload more of you doing this!

Ahhh... beautiful.

This was SICK

This is great, SO great omg.

This is absolutely beautiful!

I love how my computer speakers are on overload because of your voice and the chords. Beautiful. :)

Congratulations! ;) VC 4 is amazing ...

You're such a performer, even over webcam. Amazing!

I love this recording! It's well done. good job! I laugh everytime i hear you say paradise. "Piérre-ah-dice" nice hahaha

Your tone is fantastic :) nice work!

That's it. I officially wish I were a man so I could have LOW (and high) notes, like you! Holy freakin crap... There are no words, Matt :) I have no words... *sigh*

After hearing this, I'm dying to hear you sing the solo!

This is just outstanding! I remember my All-State conductor,Matthew Oltman, always talking about Chanticleer. He once sang with Chanticleer and was outstanding. Listening to you sing this reminds me of him a bit. Your range is incredible and I hope my passion toward music gets me closer to what you can do! Joshua Habermann, conductor of the Santa Fe Desert Chorale,has also surprisingly been my conductor in past Region concerts. I hope one day my dreams will come true, just like they did to you(:

this brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful! Did one part already but I hope to find the time to record more parts ^_^
