    Hi, has anyone heard of the "Mass of the Martyrs'? It's from back in the 60's I think. I'd like to get a copy if it's still out there.
    Thanks, Mat

    Mat, I don't have anything specifically called "Mass of the Martyrs;" but perhaps what you are looking for is one of these:

    Mass of the Holy Martyrs of North America (for two voices) by Allan Caron, published by the Mello-Music Publishing Co., Winnipeg, Canada, 1957 (Latin)

    Mass to Honor the American Martyrs (2 equal or 2 mixed choir) by Robert J. Schaffer, published by the World Library of Sacred Music, 1965. (English)

    If one of these might be what you are looking for, let me know; and I will send it to you.

    Hi, Mass of the Holy Martyrs of North America sounds like the one. I'm looking for this Mass for my Sister in Law who used to play it at Mass and would like to play it again. Se remembers it fondly. She recalls that it was sung in Latin!
    I'm new to this blog site; can you send it thru this blog?
    Thanks so much,
    Mat
