Description

Gloria by John Rutter was written in 1974 as a response to a commission from The Voices of Mel Olson. This work is divided into three movements, each corresponding to the divisions in the text. The melodic material is derived from a Gregorian chant associated with this text. The composition reflects the contrasting emotions expressed in the text, ranging from proclamatory to prayerful and joyfully affirmative. An accompaniment for orchestra without organ is also available, as well as full scores, vocal scores, and instrumental parts on hire. A separate version of the first movement, titled Gloria 1, is also available.
