Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Eric Whitacre

After nearly axing the ensemble last year, the BBC celebrates 100 years of the BBC Singers with a rapturously received programme. 

A packed Royal Albert Hall cheered as rocker-come-classical composer Eric Whitacre took to the stage for this Sunday matinee.

Raucous cheering and stamping accompanied Eric Whitacre’s entrance and he looked every bit the part of rock star as he charismatically took to the mic to introduce this evening’s concert. Never before, he told us, had he been to a choral concert that made him seriously consider stagediving.
