May the choirs of angels come to greet you...

In the past two days two significant composers of liturgical music have died. May the Lord be gracious and merciful and welcome them to the company of angels whose song of praise to God is eternal!

Richard Proulx and Richard Hillert are the two composers and while their names may be unfamiliar to many, their music will sound very familiar to most.

Here's the Holy, Holy, Holy from Proulx's Community Mass

And here's the Holy, Holy, Holy from Proulx's Festival Eucharist

Finally, here's one of my all-time favorites, Hillert's A Festival Canticle.
