A glorious Mass setting for bilingual communities! Rooted in classical music forms but spoken in a modern musical language appropriate for multicultural worship, the Misa Luna is heralded as a true work of art for today's Church. With its accessible melodies easily learned by English-speaking, Spanish-speaking, or bilingual assemblies, this Mass setting enables communities to worship together with dignity. Imaginatively constructed and highly versatile, its choral and instrumental writing features lively Baroque-style counterpoint. The title is a homage to Spanish priest and composer Alfonso Luna-Sanchez, who was the inspiration behind the work.

!La Misa Luna es una Misa cantada majestuosa y perfecta para tu comunidad! Inspirada en las armonias y el contrapunto de la musica clasica estilo barroco, pero utilizando un lenguaje musical moderno apropiado para una liturgia multicultural, la Misa Luna — cuya titulo es un homenaje al sacerdote y compositor espanol Alfonso Luna-Sanchez — es construida de una forma imaginativa y versatil. Sus melodias son faciles de aprender para una comunidad de habla-ingles, habla-hispana, o bilingue, y su circulo de acordes es bien simple para los guitarristas. Que sea acompanada por organo y trompeta tanto por guitarra y percusion, esta musica bella elevara la dignidad de tus celebraciones.
