Mass 2010, Lectionary
for Mass
Over
the past few years, as I
have experienced the
radical cultural
transformation of Roman
Catholic communities in
the United States, I
decided that I wanted to
create something in
response and support.
Mass of Creation went
through multiple
revisions—into a
Protestant version, a
revised (2010) text
version and a bilingual
version. At each
transition, the music
struggled (I believe) to
make the text
“sing†as it
had with the original
version. With the Mass of
Reconciliation / Misa de
Reconciliación, I
began with the premise
that the text would be
created to be sung
throughout either in
English or Spanish. My
hope was that faith
communities that had
Masses in both languages
might learn the mass
setting in their own
language and, when they
came together for major
feast days (Christmas
Eve/Day, Easter
Vigil/Day, and other
celebrations) they could
each sing with confidence
and passion a setting in
their own language.

Goldmacher and Lisa Loeb.

A
folk-infused ballad
celebrating the miracle
of Hanukkah. Originally
recorded by 90s pop
sensation Lisa Loeb, this
reflective change-of-pace
choral features a
rhythmic yet mellow
accompaniment and
straightforward but
expressive vocal parts.
Whether you perform with
the guitar-inspired piano
part, the optional
SoundTrax CD, or a folk
ensemble of your own,
this is truly a special
touch for holiday
concerts.
Because
of changes in our
school's schedule and the
taking away of the music
requirement in 7th and
8th grade, our choir
numbers have dropped
significantly. Searching
for music that has
educational value and
that the choir will sound
good on (we know that's
important for the parents
and faculty) I came
across Light arranged by
Andy Beck. This quickly
became a favorite of my
choir! The kids are
excited to rehearse it
every day and the sound
they are achieving fits
the folk-like feel of the
piece.
We are
using the 2-Part version.
Being 7th and 8th
graders, of my nine boys,
three are unchanged
voices (singing alto as
written) and my other six
are in varying stages of
voice change. Those six
are bouncing back and
forth between alto and
soprano parts, singing
them down an octave.
Thank you for
providing a great piece
for the holiday
season!

In the
bleak midwinter, frosty
wind made moan, Â

    Â
    Â

 Earth stood hard as
iron, water like a
stone;Â Â Â Â
    Â

   Snow had
fallen, snow on snow,
snow on snow, Â
    Â
    Â
    Â
    Â
    Â
    In the
bleak midwinter, long
ago.What can I give Him,
poor as I am? Â
    Â
    Â
    Â
    Â
    Â
    Â
    Â
    Â
  If I were a
shepherd, I would bring a
lamb;Â Â Â Â
    Â

    Â
    Â
    Â
   If I were a
Wise Man, I would do my
part;Â Â Â Â
    Â
    Â
    Â
    Â
    Â
    Â
  Yet what I can
I give Him: give my
heart.The text from this
beloved poem of Christina
Rossetti
(1830–1894) was
originally published in
an 1872 issue of
Scribner’s
Monthly, under the title
A Christmas Carol. In the
first of its five
stanzas, the speaker
describes in great detail
a bitingly cold winter
scene, void of both
warmth and light. By the
final stanza, the
speaker's thoughts turn
inward, asking what gift
they may offer the infant
Jesus, meek though they
believe themselves to
be.The poem was later set
by English composer
Gustav Holst
(1874–1934) as a
contribution to the
English Hymnal in 1906
and remains the most
popular setting
today.London-born
Rossetti came to be
regarded not only as one
of the greatest female
poets of her time, but as
an outspoken advocate on
several societal issues,
including slavery and
cruelty towards
animals.In this setting,
word painting is of the
utmost importance.
Careful attention to word
stress throughout the
course of the piece will
make the performance all
the more captivating.
Descriptive lines such as
“frosty wind made
moan†should be
conveyed with swelling
crescendos, like frigid
gusts of frozen air.While
this piece features an
original tune, the
beloved Holst melody is
also featured briefly,
beginning in m. 28. Take
care to bring this
out.There are plenty of
other allusions to wintry
scenes scattered
throughout the choral
parts as well as the
accompaniment. I
encourage you to put your
sleuthing
“hats†on and
find them all. It will
make the learning
experience much more
memorable and fun.
