Music for the Mass by Milton Babbitt (1916-). Edited by Harold Rosenbaum. For Choral (SATB DV A Cappella). Choral Large Works. 48 pages. Published by G. Schirmer.
An early work by Milton Babbitt, it employs a rigorous contrapuntal style and demonstrates a stunning command of advanced compositional techniques including inverted counterpoint, juxtapositions of motifs and extreme chromaticism, yet remains eminently singable and melodic. Movements include: Kyrie * Gloria * Sanctus * Benedictus * Agnus Dei.
