The Sacred Veil is a 12-movement work and the most recent collaboration between composer and conductor Eric Whitacre and poet/lyricist Charles Anthony Silvestri. Whitacre's work is globally renowned for its beauty, earning a Grammy Award and extensive critical acclaim.

Silvestri鈥檚 wife, Julie, died of ovarian cancer at age 36 in 2005, leaving two young children. Including texts from Whitacre, Silvestri, and Julie herself, The Sacred Veil tells a story of courtship, love, loss and the search for solace - an intimate and heartfelt way to close-out Oxford Sings.

Part of Oxford Sings, a day-long celebration of singing in its many forms.
