Description: As is written proudly on the first page of this mass in the Carver Choirbook, the young Scottish monk Robert Carver composed it at the age of 23. As Carver's date of birth is not clear, which occasion the mass was written for is a mystery. The musical language is exuberant with much interplay between the two soprano parts. Like many masses of Britain at this time there is no Kyrie.
