Michael Joncas’ newest collection, Deep and Lasting Peace, is as rich as it is varied. Here you’ll find festive settings of great hymns scored for congregations, choir, brass, and organ incorporating Joncas’s original texts. Simple settings of the three gospel canticles found in Luke utilize a “psalm tune†while another setting of the Maginificat is ideal for festive occasions. Responding to frequent requests, Joncas has revised the Gloria from his Psallite Mass casting it in a “festive†setting using a refrain format augmented by brass as well as in a “ferial†setting for everyday Sunday use with two woodwinds and guitar. Not to be missed is the title track “Deep and Lasting Peace,†which is sure to enter mainstream congregational Communion repertoire.

The dynamic pieces “’Tis the Gift to Be Simple,†“Noel Nouvelet,†and “Bring a Torch, Jeanette, Isabella,†dance along with sparkling eighth and sixteenth notes. Newer liturgical titles include pieces by Jeanne Cotter, Chris de Silva, Rory Cooney, Zach Stachowski, and Paul’s “Life Is Changed, Not Ended.†The collection is rounded out by two more of Paul’s popular interludes, both of which are created for flexible use with optional repeats laid out on two easy-to-read pages.
