Description: Folk-composer O'Connor's a cappella mass sets texts from the Old Testament in clear, open harmony, with modal inflections and ornamentation, reflecting the folk-singing traditions of Britain and Ireland which lie behind the composer's style. An American flavor is detectable in references to jazz and spirituals, making this an instantly acessible, even familiar-sounding, work of simple devotional eloquence. Gloriae Dei Cantores.
