    Fascinating musical work from a "chaotic" literary source.

      Anyone would write a weird poem if they were stuck in an asylum in the 1800’s lol. Those places were so inhumane.

    Reading this piece in choir for the first time a few weeks ago was such a wild experience. We listened together in class and all thought it was interesting but now, listening on my own, i actually have an appreciation for this piece that i didn't have before. Very beautiful and i will definitely be trying for the bass solo!

    This work begins almost sounding like Georgian chant using unison voices with no sense of meter before erupting into multimeter with added stresses and accents typical of Neo-Classic composers. It features sudden large changes in dynamics. At 10:30 we see linear counterpoint marked with dissonance. This work is mostly harmonic textures with homophonic form exempting the solos. Several tempo changes throughout before ending with a quiet "Hallelujah".

    A very special and beautiful jazz mass! Thank you for your score based presentation. Each song on its own is unique, but... Agnus Dei touched me especially. Many, many thanks.

      This piece brings tears to my eyes. I think it is one of the great choral works written in the 20th century. In other words, very far from repulsive...

      Please, please tell us precisely why this is "repulsive music". You might not like it, but this is in fact very good music, very well performed, so if you make statement like that you are obliged to explain yourself.
