Music Notes
This morning the choir is delighted to present the first hearing of ‘Missa brevis gregorium’ by Brendan Culver. Brendan has written, "The Missa Brevis de Gregorium was composed in early 2015. It's title suffix, of Gregory, references both the prominent stylistic influence of Gregorian plainchant and earliest polyphony. The prayer book text was selected as the most appropriate English alternative to Latin."
