Description/Remarks

PEL2001 Gloria In Excelsis Deo is a short, jubilant choral fanfare that derives its energy from a recurring dotted quarter-note, eighth-note, quarter-note motive.  This is one of the earliest of Paul Halley's pieces that Pelagos has published; the work was created by Halley at age sixteen for St. Matthew's Anglican Church Choir, Ottawa when a one-minute choral fanfare was requested to fill a particular point in the service.

__________________________________________________

"T
hroughout the composition, Halley’s sense of drama and motion never falters; at one minute’s duration, it would serve as an enthusiastic and impressive opening in worship and concert settings."

– Michael Braz, The Choral Journal
