Siobhan Lamb grew up in London and studied at the Royal Academy of Music. Having started off as a performer, she turned her hand to composing and has had a successful career so far. ‘Meditations’ is an acoustic piece with an evocative and explorative mix of different and distinctive sounds which is written to poems around the themes of Love, Loss, Hope, Joy and Peace, and celebrates landscape and sound. She creates the musical dialogue by weaving together the lines of a string quartet, a vocal group specialising in medieval chant, a harpist, a percussionist from the world music tradition, as well as for one section the pure sound of a children’s choir.

Meditations has received glowing reviews following its London premiere at the London Jazz Festival in November 2007, described as ‘tantalising’ and ‘expansively beautiful’ by The Guardian and ‘unmissable’ by Time Out.

Meditations was recorded at the Royal Academy of Music and was produced by Jeremy Summerly, the award winning producer of many early music releases.
