Celtic Mass

Christopher Walker

Used in English-speaking parishes around the world, the Celtic Mass has become one of the most popular settings ever written.

PricingDescriptionContentsComposers
Nurtured in an ancient tradition of music and spirituality, the late Fintan O'Carroll was one of Ireland's leading post-Vatican II composers. It was Fintan's original "Alleluia" that his good friend, Christopher Walker, arranged and extended into the Gospel Acclamation known around the world as the "Celtic Alleluia."

Expanded arrangement celebrates God's mercy
Christopher then expanded Fintan's lively vision to embrace the drama of an entire Celtic Mass, a celebration of God's mercy and glory to be enjoyed in every setting, from informal worship to grand events at the cathedral.

Featured in OCP missal and hymnal programs
This Mass setting is featured in Glory & Praise, Second Edition, Music Issue and Breaking Bread.

Can be sung with or without accompaniment
The Celtic Mass is melodic enough to be sung with or without accompaniment. Keyboard parts require only basic skills yet are easily embellished. Guitar chords can be played straight or enhanced with a bass line. Presider parts can be sung or simply spoken.

All major Mass parts available with brass and timpani parts
Choirs can celebrate in three or four parts, keeping the full harmonic sense with keyboard or other instruments. Contemporary groups will delight in adding the descant lines. For special occasions, all major Mass parts are available with exhilarating four-part brass and timpani parts.

Most recently, Christopher added "Eucharistic Prayer II" to this more-than-complete collection. There are five Eucharistic Prayers now in octavo booklets as well as on the recordings.
