In 1984, Marty Haugen released his Mass of Creation. For the next thirty years it enjoyed the distinction of being perhaps the most performed mass setting in Roman Catholic worship. Now, more than five years after the release of the revised Order of Mass 2010, the revised edition of Mass of Creation has once again surfaced as the most popular setting in the GIA catalog. In response to its popularity, Marty has crafted two eucharistic prayer settings: Eucharistic Prayer III (with five varied prefaces) and Eucharistic Prayer II for Children, complete with all the additional acclamations.
