Sometimes the words move too quickly for my liking. I wish I had more time to meditate on the words as the song continued.... I'm sure that all the Mass parts shouldn't add up to a mere 12 minutes.... Nevertheless.... It's almost sounds like something you'd here in a broadway musical (especially the Agnus Dei) This will never bee equated with Missa de Angelis.

but they should not be the same tone for all the songs of the Mass

beautiful, solemn and practical, the music must be! great music

Listened to whole Mass. Basically trite. Borders on syrupy. Why all the repeating of phrases.
Sounds like Protestant evangelical worship. Not the slightest reminisence of Roman tradition here.

Why repeat the first phrase? It is not repeated in the Missal. Composer Ned Rorem wrote that any composer that repeats a text when the author didn't, does not understand the text.

Very nice. I like the woodwind and string parts. Any chance there are some brass parts floating around?

if you're looking for something more contemporary and upbeat, please check out "New Catholic Mass Music" or "New Catholic Mass Music Gloria" videos. These arrangements are getting rave reviews at our parish in Southern California.

This mass setting is easy to learn and very beautiful! The congregation will need to learn a new mass setting and this one will work well.

Dreadful....sounds like a cheap broadway musical. Hardly appropriate for Holy Mass...
This one is another contemporary setting that would be good for a wedding.
