Arranged for SSA Missa Brevis displays Britten’s characteristic flair for writing for children but retains a devout liturgical gravitas. The decisive opening immediately presents declamatory vocal writing as eachof the three treble parts enter. The Gloria with its 7/8 metre is a jaunty setting that immediately appeals to young performers and lends appropriate joy to the text.
