The title
Pastoral Mass originated
from my children's song
Shepherd Song, as this
melody is played by the
saxophone at the
beginning of the work.
The sound of this
instrument is reminiscent
of a traditional
Lithuanian folk
instrument known as a
birbyne, played by
shepherds in the country.
The character of the
music varies between
popular and Romantic
styles, and the text is
taken from the
traditional Latin mass in
six movements. At certain
points, the instruments
are able to improvise
freely - this is
predetermined by the
conductor and soloists.
The soprano saxophone
part can also be played
on any other woodwind
instrument with an
appropriate range.
