About
This setting of the Kyrie from the Latin Mass is the first movement of Missa semplice. Having had for some time an intention to compose a Mass setting of modest proportions, in 2006 I wrote the work incorporating some other texts in English. The work was originally scored for three-part mixed voices (SAB).
Commissioned note
Re-working of 'Kyrie' for treble voices was made for Rangitoto College's choir Perfect Fourths at the request of conductor Bianca Abelskamp
