    I have submitted a Spanish adaptation for Richard Proulx' Missa Simplex to GIA (they have the rights). It was approved and is currently in the process of preparation for release soon. https://giamusic.com/resource/missa-simplex-printed-music-11185

    From time to time I sing at a Spanish Mass at my parish and have put this adaptation together with the hope of this being a good stepping stone to Gregorian chant for the Spanish speaking population. Hope this setting can help aid other Spanish speaking parishes. I am unsure of the exact release date but I am hoping for it to be available by Lent!

    I think that's a good idea!

    Anything to make Spanish-language Mass music sound less like mariachi music is welcome!

    It’s really nice to see some settings made available in different styles. They also accepted my Spanish mass which is for organ and choir (sample here). There have been so few settings in Spanish that are not a la mariachi.
