Javier Busto's Missa Minima, edited by John Ratledge, was designed for short worship services. Because of this, it was written without complexity, expressing the possibilities of rhythmic and melodic changes, but following the classical concept of the Mass. The movements can stand alone or be performed together, making this accessible for high school, college, or professional choirs.

New to the Carl Fischer family, Abeni Janae (b. 2001) brings a fresh voice in her arrangement of this wonderfully rich African American spiritual. Accessible for mixed choirs of all sizes and abilities, there is pathos and passion in every phrase.Keep in mind what this spiritual text represents, especially if you can relate to it on a personal level. Since it is a traditional spiritual, it is important to use appropriate pronunciations. That means it is acceptable not to pronounce some of the words the way we normally would in American English. For example: Do not pronounce the “t†in “little†too much, opting to pronounce it closer to “liddle.†Do not pronounce the “-er†in “longer†too much, opting to pronounce it as “lon-guh.†Whether or not the choir sings with much or minimal vibrato is at the discretion of the conductor/director.Mostly, have fun singing this piece!If you have any further questions about the background of this piece or anything of the sort, feel free to contact me at missabenijanae@gmail.com.
