A Little Jazz  Mass:

Let yourself be transported to a different musical world this autumn. Accompanied by a jazz trio, Bristol Choral Society presents two jazz versions of the mass. Bob Chilcotts A Little Jazz Mass (2004) is a highly original and effective concert setting of the Latin Missa brevis in which the various movements embrace a variety of jazz styles.

Carrying on the theme, Will Todd’s popular Mass in Blue (2003) for soprano, choir and jazz ensemble also blends two different traditions: that of a sung Mass, one of the oldest forms of European music and that of the blues.
