for Mass
The
Mass of St. Patrick, was
commissioned for the
celebration of the 800th
anniversary of the
founding of Ballintubber
Abbey, famously known as
the abbey that
“refused to
die.†As with so
many of Liam
Lawton’s
compositions, his gift
for melody grows out of
the rich, lyric music
tradition of his native
Ireland. Unmistakably
Celtic in style, the the
mass features simple
harmonic textures which
are enhanced by a C
Instrument part woven
throughout. The mass is
set primarily in D major,
making it accessible for
Irish traditional
instruments. The Mass of
St. Patrick is a pleasing
setting that your
congregation will enjoy
singing.
