MISSA BREVIS
This short mass setting for unaccompanied women’s or treble choir consists of Kyrie, Sanctus, and Agnus Dei. Although not technically demanding, the work requires sensitivity of phrasing and detailed attention to text and word stress. The heartfelt simplicity of expression underlines the inherent reverence and beauty of this liturgical text. Performance note: Missa Brevis can also be sung by a mixed chorus with tenors doubling sopranos and basses doubling altos.
Kyrie eleison,
Christe eleison.
Sanctus
Sanctus Dominus Deus Sabaoth
Pleni sunt caeli
et terra gloria tua
Benedictus qui venit
in nomine Domini.
Hosanna in excelsis
Agnus Dei qui tollis peccata mundi
Miserere nobis
Dona nobis pacem
