Concert Arrangement Sheet music: www.megaupload.com [ courtesy of Anthony Vella ] Gloria – Mass of Light (Meditational Arrangement) MP3: www.megaupload.com ~~ This is my concert piano arrangement of David Haas and Jeanne Cotter’s “Glory to God” (Gloria) from the popular Catholic “Mass of Light” setting. www.myspace.com Ben Ireland is a New Age, classical pianist from New Orleans, Louisiana. He started piano at the age of four, immersed in classical studies and then coupled his musical passion with jazz studies. Ben has performed concerts in both New Orleans and Charlotte. About this piece: The vocal accompaniment is kept exactly the same. The piano accompaniment is different, but still in E major. Interestingly, I modeled my arrangement of this popular David Haas tune from a number in Stephen Sondheim’s famous Broadway musical, “Company.” Unfortunately, I do not have sheet music for this; as most of this is improvisational. Enjoy :-)
