Composer: Richard Proulx
Publisher: GIA Publishing
DETAILS:
Since its original publication in 1971, A Community Mass has become a staple for many parishes. Due to its wide use and inclusion in various denominational hymnals, additional material and new instrumentations were periodically created by the composer. These "enrichments" have made A Community Mass adaptable to a variety of circumstances and forces — from cantor, assembly, and organ to performances by choir and assembly with small or large instrumental ensembles in addition to organ. Thus an "ordinary" setting is transformed into a "festive" setting in the appropriate liturgical context. The current edition contains Proulx's own alterations for incorporating the 2010 Revised Order of Mass.
Composer: Richard Proulx
Publisher: GIA Publishing
DETAILS:

Composer: Franz Peter Schubert, arr. Richard Proulx
Publisher: GIA Publishing
DETAILS:
The melodies of Schubert's folk-style setting of the Mass in the vernacular are accessible to any assembly. For over a quarter century, communities everywhere have used the Richard Proulx editions of German Mass (in English), which are based on the critical edition. The current edition contains Proulx's own alterations for incorporating the 2010 Revised Order of Mass.
Composer: Norah Duncan IV
Publisher: GIA Publishing
DETAILS:
Musical genres abound in this eclectic Mass setting from Norah Duncan IV.

Composer: Liam Lawton, Arr. Paul A. Tate
Publisher: GIA Publishing
DETAILS:
Liam Lawton—master of melody—has penned an alluring Mass setting that fuses the rich tradition of Celtic folk music with a contemporary Irish feel. While featuring lush harmonies for SAB voices, the melody remains the driving force. Tempos range from an upbeat lilt in the Gloria to the more sedate and tender lyricism of the Sanctus and Lamb of God. This sonorous arrangement by Paul Tate, making use of flute and oboe, captures the essence of a resplendent emerald landscape and will be a joy to sing for any congregation.
Composer: Michel Guimont
Publisher: GIA Publishing
DETAILS:
The Mass for a Servant Church achieves a good balance: it is easily accessible for the assembly, it is magnificent with cantor and organ alone, and it can be further enhanced with the addition of choral harmonies, brass quartet, and timpani for more festive celebrations. Guimont's creative melodic and harmonic writing ensures that the setting will remain fresh after years of use.
Composer: Tony Alonso
Publisher: GIA Publishing
DETAILS:
The Mass of Joy and Peace weaves together gentle melodic motifs and jubilant, lilting rhythmic patterns eliciting a sense of quiet joy and blissful peace. The use of repeated passages ensures ease of learning and quick retention for your assembly, while the comfortable ranges of the three-part voicing (SAB) make this a great choice for smaller choirs and ensembles. The graceful string and woodwind arrangements overlay a delicate beauty, further enhancing this delightful and memorable liturgical setting.
Composer: Chris de Silva
Publisher: GIA Publishing
DETAILS:
Mass from Age to Age is an apt title for this setting. It has a contemporary sound and interesting harmonies, while including some Greek and Latin texts of the Mass in addition to the 2010 English revision. Supported by an idiomatic piano accompaniment, Chris de Silva's solid choral writing is accessible to singers of all levels. Participation in this Mass will prove to be uplifting for all!
Composer: M Roger Holland II
Publisher: GIA Publishing
DETAILS:
The Sound of My People utilizes various gospel styles from deep within the African American tradition of Christian worship. We predict that this will be the premier new setting for African American communities from coast to coast — especially for more festive occasions. Scored for congregation, SATB choir, and piano, the music is a bit challenging but tremendously rewarding.
Missa Ad Gentes (Maryknoll Centennial Mass):
Composer: Michael Joncas
Publisher: GIA Publishing
DETAILS:
Missa Ad Gentes was commissioned by the Maryknoll Community to celebrate their centenary. One of the most intriguing features of this setting is that the various movements musically represent both Maryknoll's United States heritage and the diverse cultures in which Maryknoll missioners serve. Some of the cultural influences represented include
Portuguese, Hispanic, Russian, and Asian. The eucharistic acclamations can be done with organ, brass quintet, and timpani, intensifying an already sumptuous setting.
Composer: Rob Glover
Publisher: GIA Publishing
DETAILS:
The infectious joy of the spiritual "Plenty Good Room" permeates this Mass setting. While the choir parts are rich and
rewarding, the assembly parts are quickly learned and easily retained. The writing is upbeat and contains a lot of syncopation. There is a dramatic quality to this piece that will invite everyone to "choose your seat and sit down".
Misa Una Santa Fe/One Holy Faith Mass:
Composer: Ronald F. Krisman
Publisher: GIA Publishing
DETAILS:
Misa Una Santa Fe/One Holy Faith Mass offers a multitude of performance options, making this fully bilingual setting perfect for any parish. This comprehensive Mass contains every acclamation you'll need for the liturgical year plus additional verses for the gospel acclamations (including Lent), bilingual intercessions, the preface dialogue, every form of the memorial acclamation, and a sung setting of the Our Father. And everything can be sung in Spanish, English, or any combination of the two. This setting works well with an ensemble of piano, guitars, and optional percussion, but also with organ. The use of brass quartet and timpani will enhance the eucharistic acclamations and add a festive dimension to this thoroughly appealing Mass setting.
Composer: Marty Haugen
Publisher: GIA Publishing
DETAILS:
Commissioned by the Catholic Parish of Our Lady of England in Storrington, Haugen's versatile Storrington Mass displays striking contrasts—not only with other Mass settings but also within its own pages. Storrington Mass has everything we've come to expect from this master composer. Although comparatively more subdued and more lilting than some Masses, the use of the full complement of forces (including brass quartet and timpani) can make for a majestic and festive liturgy.
