Kyrie – Mass of Eternal Unity (2023)
The Mass of Eternal Unity will be my most significant work. Bringing a new movement to the year in the form of a consortium means that we will be united for the rest of the decade; it means that 50 choirs will have the opportunity to be authors of one of the most ambitious works ever written. Kyrie has been a beautiful start; in 2024, we will write Gloria, another grand page for this story together.

Galaxias (2021)
We are all stars, we are to illuminate and be illuminated by those around us. This work is the adventure of mutual support.

Within its resonant notes lies a celebration of the intricate mosaic of humanity, where diversity is etched into our very species’ DNA. This composition harmoniously rejoices in the kaleidoscope of genders and the beauty found within our differences, a testament to the unity that arises when we embrace diversity.
