Composer’s note 

I wrote this piece to mark the end of my time as Composer-in-Residence for Choralis, a 100-person mixedvoice 

choir based in Washington, DC. When considering the Latin Gloria text, the model for me had to 

be the wonderful setting by Antonio Vivaldi, a work that I know well as both a singer and a conductor. I 

have always loved the rhythmic impulse of this piece, along with the freshness of its shapes and clarity of 

textures, which combine with music that is both tender and deeply expressive. 

I am grateful to Gretchen Kuhrmann, Artistic Director of Choralis, and to her colleagues and choir 

members for championing a number of my works and for their enthusiasm and commitment to bringing 

this new piece to life. 

for online perusal only
