Eric Whitacre Quotes
I'm a self-confessed geek, and my whole concept of music at first was entirely electronic. In many ways, it turned out to be an advantage. I was so green, so utterly naive about the nature of classical music, that I did things that made me look totally, deliberately unorthodox.

Dancing to the first album was more of a constant flow, the music was similarly paced, with much the same tempo all the way through the set. Myself and Keith tended to alternate on stage, and the performance was much more dance-based than theatrical. With the second album, Jilted, things got harder and the stage show became a lot more full-on. Each one of us had developed into identifiable personality on stage, and with that cam the theatrics, Keith in a strait-jacket, in the glass box, or the ball. Then we realised that we didn't need that, that we have a great live show without those dramatic extras. For example, Keith is now a compelling performer in his own right, he doesn't need the tricks.
