My favourite (manufactured? ed) Mass
An alternative to a Desert Island Discs – my favourite Mass - a selection of my favourite movements of the Mass setting. I still cannot settle on a definitive choice, but here’s my attempt:
Kyrie: Messe Solennelle (Vierne) or Mass in C Minor (Mozart)
Gloria: Mass in G (Poulenc) or Messe Solennelle (Hakim) or Mass for Double Choir (Martin)
Creed: Missa Brevis (Kodaly) or Mass for Double Choir (Martin) or Mass in B Minor (Bach)
Sanctus: Messe Solennelle (Langlais) or Requiem (Duruflé) or even African Sanctus (Fanshawe)
Benedictus: Mass in G Minor (Vaughan Williams) or Requiem (Mozart)
Angus Dei: Mass for Double Choir (Martin) or Missa Brevis (Kodaly)
