General Information
Title: Gloria (from 'Missa Gallinum Huma')
Composer: Oliver Barton
Number of voices: 4vv Voicing: SATB
Genre: Sacred, Masses
Language: English
Instruments: none, a cappella
Published: 2000
Description:
This setting is energetic with a more reflective middle section. There is a certain debt to the Missa Luba and the singers ought to feel quite exhausted by the end.
I haven't written the rest of the mass yet. "Gallinum huma" could be translated as "interred chicken" or, with a little imagination, "Hen-bury". It was written for the Henbury Singers in Bristol.
