In Bright Mass With Canons, the canonical motifs are present right from the beginning and carry through almost every bar of the work.There are echoes of early English Choral writing and abstracted sections with flurries of sound interspersed with more Choral writing, all in the most modern idioms.Contemporary American composer Nico Muhly is a prolific writer and arranger who, at 32, is the youngest composer ever to have been commissioned by the Metropolitan Opera in New York. His oeuvre includes two operas, and many solo pieces and works for small ensemble, Orchestra, and Chorus, and he has collaborated with artists such as Philip Glass, Björk and Sigur Rós. / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Orgue

Bright Mass With Canons by composer Nico Muhly was originally composed for SATB chorus and Organ Accompaniment, but this arrangement features Two Pianos and Percussion. This is the set of Parts for this unique arrangement of a wonderful composition. This work was arranged by Buck McDaniel in 2014 and features an intriguing mix of percussive instruments like the Triangle, Glockenspiel and Vibraphone, together with the Two Pianos, creating a wholly new piece that takes the original composition and transforms it with an entirely new sound and dynamic. The work is divided into four sections, Kyrie, Gloria, Sanctus & Benedictus and Agnus Dei .
