About the Score

"Kyrie Eleison" was composed in three days in mid-December of 2017, excepting a few preliminary sketches made earlier that year and later became the first movement of my "Missa Brevis". It is a setting of the traditional first prayer of the Mass ordinary:

Kyrie eleison Christe eleison

meaning:

Lord, have mercy Christ, have mercy

The topic of mercy and compassion is something I have been thinking about a lot during this tumultuous year for my country and the greater world. I firmly believe that each of us needs to cultivate more mercy and compassion for all other beings if we are to have a brighter, better, and happier future. This work is a meditation on these oftentimes overlooked virtues.
