A work that will be finished in 2030? A consortium for each mass number to create connection and a beautiful unforgettable experience

Join The New Consortium: Mass- Universal Unity

It is a pleasure to announce and share this exciting new choral project with you. Moreover, I invite all choir directors to be part of this unique opportunity to create something special together.

The initiative consists of building a mass in several consortiums, one number per year. By the end of this decade, you will have been part of one of the most exciting stories. You will have something to tell and many new friends with whom to share the fact of having been part of this adventure in at least one of the numbers of the mass.

Furthermore, your name will be forever engraved in the scores. Even though you can premiere issue by issue, the work will have the epicity of having taken years to see the light of day in its entirety. With that in mind, isn’t that reason enough to participate?

How will the system work?

The consortium will consist of only 7 choirs; however, each year I will write an additional number until we complete the full mass – Universal Unity. As a matter of fact, the goal for this piece is to unite a total of 50 choirs throughout the remainder of this decade. How do you imagine that being a part of this can positively impact your audience, your singers and your career?

You can also choose to be part of a tour

As a member of the consortium, you will have the opportunity to rehearse and perform this new piece with us during our upcoming USA tour from September to November. This can be a great opportunity to get to know each other and create a beautiful experience together. The nature of this consortium makes the work more than music. It is a performative act that highlights the power of union between people. It will be a true honor to have your involvement in this endeavor.

When does the consortium start?

You can sign up today. As soon as the 7 choirs are registered in the form, the consortium will be considered complete. Even so, we will keep the list of all those who signed up so that next year they can be part of the second number of the mass.

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to be part of something extraordinary! Pre-register now by clicking the button below and filling out the form. We will contact you with more information on how to join the consortium.
