 This short mass is one of the songs written for amateur choirs. It’s a work for modest people with the noble meaning of being craftspeople, music blacksmiths, and sound builders with the pure wish of doing a fine work. Patrick Rutgé wants to write in a more contemporary language, to test different sounds and give it all to imagination and expression. The choir conveys incredible emotions, linking real and unspeakable without being easy or demagogic.
