‘The Armed Man’ - a Mass for peace at the Holy Trinity

The Armed Man is a Mass by Welsh composer Karl Jenkins, subtitled "A Mass for Peace". The piece was originally dedicated to victims of the Kosovo crisis.

It is essentially an anti-war piece and is based on the Catholic Mass, which Jenkins combines with other sources, principally the 15th-century folk song "L'homme armé" in the first and last movements.

This is the first time this work has been performed in Gibraltar.
