Great that you put both versions up here, diggin' the arrangement by Harrison and Jefferson!

When I was in high school, my choir performed this lovely piece of music. At the end of the year, when we had to turn in all of our music, I made sure to leave this partitura in my book-bag. All these years later, I still have it and look at it fondly.

Love it

beautiful. one of the best interpretations of this piece I have heard.

This treasure has been hiding back here. Great music and entertainers.

This is so amazing! I'm getting ready to perform this song in the SSAA arrangement with an ensemble and I'm super hyped! 🙏🏻✨

Perfect! Ty for uploading :-)

This is amazing!! Thank you!!

Highschool choir of Lincoln High was NO I out of the entire school district, in which I sang in / One of the faviorites was Listen To THE Lambs. Howard University sings it perfectly.

All the crying

Genius.

Nice!

nice to hear the Howard University choir. Have not heard them since Dean Warner Lawson was at the helm.

So few views to such a magnificent masterpiece ... So sad no publicity.... Perfect Janice....

This keeps grounded and I love to sing along also. Alabado sea Jesucristo, por siempre sea alabado!

Terrific piano arrangement...!!!

It started without me knowing and i was greatly surprised and moved with pleasure. Outstanding Wow

Holy Trinity Choir Nsimeyong made me love this song. Wish I could find their perfomance on KZbin.

It's a sin and a shame that Nathaniel Dett is not better known. This sacred choral piece is as beautiful as it gets. Very satisfying to sing, too. This is the best interpretation of it I have heard. Thanks for posting.

Very nice.

Way to fast.

nice...

Thank you so much for posting this hauntingly beautiful piece of choral music. I had the chance to perform it in secondary school and it never really left me.

Nice.

Love this! THANKS!

We're doing Listen To The Lambs tomorrow at Scarborough Presbyterian Church in Briarcliff Manor, NY. It's Good Shepherd Sunday, and this year is the hundredth anniversary of this wonderful anthem. I fell in love with while in college many years ago listening to the Mormon Tabernacle record of it. A magical piece!

Hi Luther , when can we do "Listen to the lamb"

So we did this arrangement for county chorus at my school and I love the alto part!!!

Beautiful. I've always been in love with Hopkin's poetry. This choir piece really does do it justice. :)

One of my fave songs to listen to when I'm thinking or working

Klingt gut

You are welcome! And thank you, as well, for taking a moment to comment. :-)

I have fond memories of my days as a member of the Howard Univ. Choir. Perfection was demanded and achieved, much as with the choir of this recording. Thanks for posting.

oh man, the memories !!!

This is probably the best quality version of this song I've seen on youtube. Well done.

We did this arrangement when I was high school. I love, love, love this piece.

A beautiful song, with a beautiful music from Janis and Chick Corea.

Probably my favourite song of all time :)

it's nice!!

Trivia: Georg Ratzinger, the conductor here, is the sole brother of Benedict XVI, the pope emeritus. Trivia II: The choir's name (Domspatzen) means "Cathedral Sparrows" - thus the CD's cover image. :-)
