Product Overview
Gloria was written in 1974 in response to a commission from The Voices of Mel Olson, a choir based in the USA. The division of the work into three movements - respectively proclamatory, prayerful, and joyfully affirmative - corresponds to the divisions in the text. Most of the melodic material derives from a Gregorian chant associated with this text.
*Vocal score includes SATB parts and orchestral reduction.
