The first piece I’m going to talk about is Lux Aurumque by Eric Whitacre. This piece is a cantata‚ or a piece that is meant to be sung by a choral SATB choir. Since the choir is not all singing the same pitches‚ this piece would be texturally polyphonic with the sopranos especially near the end singing a different tune than the rest of the voices.
