Scope and Contents

Messe : a 2 choeurs et 2 orgues / Bruce Larsen, Charles Widor.

Judging from the photocopied score of the original by Widor, this Mass was written for two organs and two choirs (choir I: baritones; choir II: sopranos, altos, tenors, and basses). Besides this original published score, the majority of the music included in this file is made up of Bruce Larsen’s arrangement for violins I, II; viola; celli; bass; trumpets I, II, III; trombones I, II, III; horns I, II; harp, and organ. There are multiple copies of individual manuscripts for each part, as well as photocopy of a condensed score of the arrangement. In addition there is a folder with what appears to be a fanfare to be played during the elevation of the host...and another partial score. According to a planning sheet that was filed with the music, this music was played for Mass at Holy Childhood Church (???).
