That Little Child

Unison Octavo

Winner of the DaCapo Chamber Choir national NewWorks 2012 Composition Competition. It begins with text from the Lamentations in Latin set to an originally conceived plainsong melody and presented in both chant and modern notations. It is immediately followed by an a cappella setting of "Song" by Canadian Marjorie Pickthall (1883-1922).

Knowing of Marjorie's deep spirituality and her extensive use of religious symbology throughout her other works, I envision this poem as an expression of one nearing the end of their life and invoking the Creator. I have changed the expression, "sweet heart" to "my love" and capitalized three specific words, Star (God, in the heavens), Rose (God, one with the sacred feminine) and Love (God, Love Divine). When read in this way, and with the introduction of Jeremiah, I think the meaning is clearer and more meaningful.
