   José Maurício Nunes Garcia was a well-respected 18th-century Brazilian composer. This “Gloria” comes from a Christmas Eve Mass he wrote in 1811. There has recently been a resurgence of interest in his work, as the world awakens to classical composers outside of Western Europe. This delightful setting of the Liturgical Latin from the Mass is an excellent choice for both church and school choirs.


Important! The ancillary product for this work (P1742A) is RENTAL ONLY. The full score and parts for strings and timpani ($150) are available at https://www.fredbockpublishinggroup.com/rentals.
