Missa Oecumenica

    For Christmas, 1968, I was organist for the Franciscan Friars Choir at Duns Scotus College, Southfield, MI. We used a Mass Ordinary, Missa Oecumenica, with brass accompaniment from the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. The music was beautiful. I have tried over the past few years to find a copy of that Mass with little luck. There is a Missa Oecumenica composed by Richard Proulx in 1999, but that is not the mass I am searching for. Do you have access or know how I might obtain a copy of the Missa Oecumenica that was around in 1968? Thanks, Al.

    According to the WorldCat database, World Library Publications published a Missa Oecumenica by Camil van Hulse in 1962, for TTB, populo, organ, and brass. Could this be the one? The University of Colorado-Boulder has a copy, if interlibrary loan is a possibility for you.

    There was a thread on this forum some time ago about Camil van Hulse.

    Alexander Grechaninov also wrote a Missa Oecumenica, but it doesn't appear to include brass.

    Hope this helps.

    Yes, this is the mass I was looking for. I thought that Camil van Hulse was the composer. Thank you so much for bringing my search to a happy ending.
