Missa Brevis

Commissioned by the Stanford University Memorial Church Choir, these three mass movement miniatures are subtitled "Trinity." The composer, Kirke Mechem, writes: "the unity and universality of the human spirit whether expressed in religious, philosophical or personal terms. It is in this spirit that I have musically combined separate parts of the mass in each of its three movements." Movements include: Kyrie/Sanctus, Hosanna/Benedictus, Agnus Dei.
