Description

This cycle was written for soprano Tami Petty, mezzo Sarah Lambert, and pianist Howard Watkins for a joint recital given at Marble Collegiate Church, New York in 2004. These are settings of children’s often comical and touching prayers to God. The solo version of this cycle was recorded by Laura Strickling and can be found on my album, “Infrastructure: The Songs of David Sisco.”
