The Nidaros Jazz Mass draws on a variety of jazz styles to present a fun and innovative setting of the Latin Missa brevis. With a gentle Kyrie funky Gloria ballad-like Sanctus laid-back Benedictus and passionate Agnus Dei this work breathes new life into familiar words perfectly combining the contemporary with the ancient. The stylistic piano part can be played as written or serve as a guide and an optional bass and drum kit part is available separately for jazz trio accompaniment. Ideal for all upper-voice choirs the Nidaros Jazz Mass will make a groovy and soulful addition to any concert programme.This work was commissioned by theNidaros Cathedral Girls' Choir of Trondheim Norway.
