ابتهال القيام بالسلطان حسن - رمضان 2013

مشهد  من سيرة رضوى عاشور
من كتابها الأخير أثقل من رضوى
بصوت زينب سليم

يقول بلال فضل ينعي رضوى عاشور:

(في ختام كتابها الأخير الرائع "أثقل من رضوى"، الذي سجلت فيه مقاطع من سيرتها الذاتية، يظهر حرص رضوى الدائم على ألا تتورط أبداً في قتل الأمل، ولو بدعوى الواقعية والمصلحة الوطنية، والحفاظ على الدولة، فها هي تكتب في أجواء سادت فيها روح الإحباط مخاطبة من تعتبر أنهم عائلتها الممتدة من الشغيلة والثوار والحالمين الذين يناطحون زمانهم من حزب العناد، قائلة لهم:

 "نمقت الهزيمة، لا نقبل بها، فإن قضت علينا، نموت كالشجر واقفين، ننجز أمرين كلاهما جميل: شرف المحاولة وخبراتٌ ثمينة، تركةٌ نخلّفها بحرص إلى القادمين. هناك احتمال آخر لتتويج مسعانا بغير الهزيمة، ما دمنا قررنا أننا لن نموت قبل أن نحاول أن نحيا". )

Erik Satie Gymnopedie No. 1 - Orchestral Version

"Whitacre is that rare thing, a modern composer who is both popular and original"
- The Daily Telegraph, London

Eric has inspired millions as composer, conductor, innovator, broadcaster and charismatic public speaker. His compositions rank among the most popular and frequently performed of the early 21st century, their reach broadened since 2010 by the extraordinary success of his online Virtual Choir project. Light & Gold, his first album as composer and conductor, won the 2012 Grammy® Award for Best Choral Recording and instantly topped the US and UK classical album charts.

Born in Nevada, he discovered a passion for choral music while studying at UNLV and he began composing soon after. He went on to study at the Juilliard School of Music in New York under John Corigliano. Many of his choral compositions, Cloudburst, Lux Aurumque and Sleep among them, have entered the standard choral repertoire and his orchestral music has been performed by some of the world’s most distinguished orchestras both sides of the Atlantic. Eric is currently Composer-in-Residence at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge University, UK.

A distinguished speaker, Eric has been invited to address the UN Leaders Programme, give the closing plenary at Davos World Economic Forum and to speak for UNICEF and Google among others. He has appeared twice on the main stage at the global TED conference in Long Beach CA, earning standing ovations on both occasions. Recent Virtual Choir projects include ‘Glow’ written for the Winter Dreams holiday show at Disneyland© Adventure California and the Virtual Youth Choir, in association with UNICEF, which premiered at the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games. Broadcast live to 119 countries worldwide, Eric made his iTunes Festival debut with his professional choir in 2014, inviting multi award-winning composer and conductor Hans Zimmer to join him on stage. The performance was consequently released as a live album. Eric returned to the Minnesota Orchestra for a second residency in 2015 culminating in three performances at Orchestra Hall.
