Thank you, everyone, for such kind support on my big, Missa project post, the other day. I'm so sorry that I clog the board with yet another post about it, but I've been working for much of the day on it, and I can't help wishing to show you what I've come up with  I'm afraid that I've been trying to avoid listening to other songs, whilst I was writing this, so that I wouldn't be too distracted, haha ... whether it was a good idea, or just a superstition of mine, I don't know ... but there we are. I will listen to everyone's songs again, starting from tonight (right after I take a small break, my head is almost spinning!)  In the meantime, though: MISSA The link above is where you'll find the Missa, now (in its so far incomplete state), and also once it's complete. The Introit was already written, the last time I posted. I've written the Kyrie, last night - and the Gloria and Sanctus, this morning and afternoon, respectively. For some reason, I don't want to do a Credo (it's complicated), but I will write (all being well) an Our Father and an Agnus Dei, at the very least, too. I've also decided to add, after each of these Missa movements, one of my previous, sacred songs. I therefore have, as of now, just over half an hour of music, already done. See what you think?  Once it's properly finished, and we all agree it's ok  , I think I may put it on the Play It Forward website, where one can upload music, choose a registered charity, and 100% of what people decide to pay (if anything) for the music goes to the charity. I think, given what's going on in the world, right now, I may choose Doctors Without Borders (unless someone else has a better idea!). PG Music - THANK YOU. This would never have happened without you.
Everyone on this miraculous forum: THANK YOU for ALL of your patience and kind feedback, ever since I've been on here. Without YOUR encouragement, not only would this project not even have gotten off the ground, but I probably would not have written half the songs I have. You're too many, of course, to thank individually, but THANK YOU, all ... truly  Now, for a small break ... and then back to listen to YOUR songs

James, I won't pretend to fully follow the arc of your overall plan, but I really enjoyed this song! The composition is lovely, and the key modulations add interest but sound effortless (as they should). Your vocals are very nice as always, but they sound a tad more muffled than I like. (Could just be my high frequency hearing loss, too) Best of luck with your very ambitious project, and THANKS for sharing!
