for SSAATTBB unaccompanied
Based on the well-known poem by William Blake, this Christmas piece transports listeners with sounds of heavenly angels beckoning the little Lamb in layered melodic fragments that cascade through the parts before the voices come together for a climactic homophonic section on 'Little lamb, God bless thee'. The agility of each vocal line's calls to the Lamb is a gentle yet rich example of a choir working in full unity to create masterful simplicity. Winner of the Ensemble Altera composition competition in 2022, The Lamb was released by Ensemble Altera on their album 'The Lamb's Journey'.
