Sound Sample - Kyrie
Sound Sample - Gloria
Scored for
mezzo-soprano and vibraphone. This work consists of two short but challenging
movements: Kyrie & Gloria, and makes use of Greek and Latin texts.
The vibraphone part does not serve merely as accompaniment to the

melodic counterpoint to the sopranos melodic lines. The vibraphone
part requires four-mallets and intermediate/advanced technique.
This piece offers a unique setting of these texts and would be
appropriate both for sacred settings and the concert hall!
