The Mass setting began as a set of Eucharistic Acclamations. They were designed to be introduced responsorially but then sung straight through. Later at the request of an American parish a Penitential Rite, Gloria and Lamb of God were added. The whole setting was revised in the light of the 3rd edition of the Roman Missal.
The Mass of St Gabriel is intended for a variety of resources and can work with just a single unaccompanied cantor to choir, instruments, keyboard and guitar.
The setting has been approved for publication by the Department for Christian Life and Worship.
