|  Composed by Gabriel Fauré and André Messager during their holidays in Villerville in 1881, Fishermen Mass in Villerville is a mass dedicated to the fishermen of this city located in Normandy. Initially for Female choir, Harmonium and solo Violin, it was arranged by the authors in 1882 for Female choir and Chamber Orchestra. These scores, based on the two manuscripts, are the arranged version for Female choir and Piano by Odette Gartenlaub. Written in Latin, this mass features five parts which had been distributed in-between the two composers:
1. Kyrie – Messager,
2. Gloria – Fauré,
3. Sanctus – Fauré,
4. O Salutaris (motet) – Messager,
5. Agnus Dei – Fauré.
This mass is really soft, melodious and delicate, reminding sometimes of the motets by Gounod.
Minimum delivery time 2 to 3 weeks.

| | |  The “Messe excentrique” is a first published creation for unaccompanied choirs. It was composed between 2013 and 2014 based on a short mass. It is dedicated to the memory of Lord Eugene Martin, the composer’s maternal grandfather. She was revealed for the first time on November 15, 2014, and conducted by the composer. It was the birth anniversary of the grandfather who passed away in 2008.It is divided into 7 parts. Classical elements from Latin Catholic liturgy are included. The “Messe excentrique” is also based on psalms and English poems.Privacy is the main characteristic of this song. That’s why the perfect number of choristers is 16; 4 singers by desks. However, the composer himself said that it can be sung by up to 32 singers.The composer explained that he randomly used Latin, and the text is only an excuse to play the music. For example the “Credo” is usualy the biggest text of Catholic lithurgic mass, but it is widely cut in this version. The cut parts are replaced by English extracts from psalm 103.The second original side is mixing languages. What is new is that a modern language is mixed with the Roman Catholic liturgical text. Sacred and secular texts are intertwined with some of Emily Dickinson’s poems. The seven parts are a part from the stylistic mix, but there is absolutely no vulgarity. |
