Behold the Lamb of God is a work for solo violoncello inspired in the Gospel of John. Articulated in three parts, it is a piece that elaborates on the qualities of faith and selflessness, with a very organic fabric.
The work has been included on “CROSSINGS: New Music for Cello,” by cellist Kate Dillingham, available now on the Furious Artisans label.
