My Exsultet uses the ancient chant to which the Easter Proclamation is declaimed, normally by a deacon at the start of the Great Vigil of Easter. The chant dates from somewhere between the fourth and seventh centuries and consists of formulaic repetitions of simple phrases. I have elaborated these phrases canonically, melodically, and harmonically into a three-part vocal fabric, accompanied by obbligato instruments. The full text of the original goes on for quite some time. My choral-instrumental version is much shorter.
Commissioned by the Young People's Chorus of New York City for Transient Glory and dedicated to Francisco J. Núñez.

From a simple, joyful Gospel Acclamation based on the tune LAMBILLOTTE (Alleluia, Song of the Spirit) comes this full Mass setting where all the sung portions are based on that tune. While featuring a driving, rhythmic piano part, there is also an alternate accompaniment with more intentional melodic support that is suitable for organ. Optional instrumental parts are intended for trumpet and flute but may be played by any combination of C or B-flat treble instruments. With the joyful exuberance of the tune at its core, this Mass setting is especially well-suited to Easter and Ordinary Time.

For three-part mixed or three-part equal voices this setting of Sara Teasdale’s poem, “Refuge†includes an intriguing introduction that organically repeats the word “refuge†in a number of languages. The angst of Teasdale’s poetry is reflected in the driving accompaniment and shifting meters. Adding a variety of percussion instruments to this work will enhance the overall performance. .

The piano accompaniment enhances the pentatonic melodies, and an easy instrumentation, such as bells, glockenspiel, or wind chime, can be added. Gorgeous in its simplicity of sound.
