Foreword
This article comments on the first part of a Celtic musical piece that can already be listened to with pleasure.
If you have never heard of Gilles Mathieu's Irish Mass, before reading this article, we advise you to take a few minutes to listen to this Kyrie.
This piece is from one of the first presentations of this Mass in 2007 by the INSA Vocal Ensemble under the direction of Leslie Peeters (Saint Paul's Church, Lyon).
Introduction
The first movement of this Irish Mass is aligned with the Kyrie of the Catholic Mass.
It starts with an opening where, in particular, the Irish bagpipe sets the scene.
Then, as in many musical masses, the Kyrie itself offers several variations.
