This Missa L'homme armé is based on the famous tune used by many composers in the 15th and 16th centuries. I have used as the base material in different ways; sometimes quoting directly (Agnus Dei), sometimes using the melodic intervals to create the movement (Sanctus).
The text is in English; from the Episcopalian Book of Common Prayer.
Each movement is short and the counterpoint is kept to a minimum for clarity of text. It is appropriate for church services; the piece is written so one movement can be performed as an indivicual work.
In a concert setting, it of course may be performed complete. There is no Credo movement; that was a decision on my part, as singing the Credo in the Episcopalian service (or Anglican) is not usual.
