Created and composed by Lloyd Larson, Who Do You Say That I Am? invites choir, narrators, and congregation to experience anew the earthly life of Jesus, seeing His life, ministry, death, and resurrection through the eyes of front-row participants, whose varied answers to the title question reveal the Messiah, Emmanuel, gifted Teacher, the miracle Worker, the King of glory, the King above all kings, a Man of sorrows, the sacrificial Lamb of God, and the triumphant Lord of life, the Son of the living God. This extended work, suitable for the Lenten season, may be presented in multiple segments during Lent or throughout Holy Week. It may also be performed in its entirety as a single 35-minute work, culminating with a resurrection anthem or saving that final chapter of the story for Easter Sunday. The short dramatic monologues may be presented from memory by actors in costume or by narrators reading the scripts from the cantata book.

TINY TATTOO was written after the composer visited a “treetop” bistro at Big Sur, California. The restaurant is named Nepenthe, after an ancient Greek elixir fabled to relieve any and all sorrows. This spot-on-the-cliff made such an impression on Pann that musical ideas immediately started flowing, giving rise to the opening hook of this 5-minute orchestral work. Written as a gift to conductor Alastair Willis, TINY TATTOO is a highly catchy and colorful work with exciting percussion parts, equally suitable for advanced student orchestras, professional ensembles, and everything in between.
TINY TATTOO (2017) was written after visiting a “treetop” bistro at Big Sur, California with my wife after driving the entire day up from L.A. The restaurant is called “Nepenthe,” named after an ancient Greek elixir fabled to relieve one from any and all sorrows. This spot-on-the-cliff made such an impression on me (in my exhausted state) that I immediately began humming the opening minimal hook in what is now this piece. Any well-known excerpts containted within the work are happy accidents.Tiny Tattoo was written as a gift to conductor Alastair Willis.
