In 1988, GIA released Michael Joncas’s No Greater Love, a flexible mass setting offering cathedral-style music that was accessible to the singing assembly. Beautiful melodies enhanced by SATB choir and extensive orchestrations were the hallmark of this best-selling work. Now, Michael Joncas has revised this treasured setting using the 2010 Revised Order of Mass. The revision has a new through-composed Gloria that can be sung in unison during the Sundays of Ordinary Time, and for more festive occasions, one can add the optional instrumental and SATB choral parts. Also new to this setting are the gospel acclamation and a sung setting of the prayer of the faithful. The memorable congregational parts for the Kyrie and the Agnus Dei haven’t changed and the much-loved Holy, Holy has been adapted to accommodate the 2010 Revised Order of Mass text. The optional orchestration is now reduced and includes string quartet, flute, and oboe parts.

The modern a cappella series offers new, challenging a cappella music with a jazzpop sound. The editions are orientated towards the needs of the developing jazz-pop choral scene. a special choral sound, groove, improvisation and choreography play central roles - individual singers can come to the fore as soloists. In short, modern a cappella is a new category of choral music; there are no covered pop songs and also no serious new music, rather grooving, contemporary vocal music with unconventional texts and choral presence. The series is geared towards highly motivated youth choirs as well as ambitious ensembles from all genres. Score available separately - see item CA.982100.
