Three Glorias for the New English Translation

As we progress toward the implementation of the new English translation of the Roman Missal we are hearing and seeing more activity surrounding this -- including that the Bishops of England and Wales are preparing to introduce the Ordinary of the new translation prior to Advent 2011, specifically in September; see Zenit as well as the official press release for more on that particular story.

Also related to the new English translation, the NLM was recently informed about three new compositions of the Gloria which have been made freely available and which use the new English translation.

Here they are:

ENGLISH CHANT MASS • Richard Rice • GLORIA from Corpus Christi Watershed


Gloria in Honour of Blessed Ralph Sherwin by Jeffrey Ostrowski from Corpus Christi Watershed


Adam Bartlett Gloria from Corpus Christi Watershed
