“La Rocca has forged an individual and powerful style: emotionally compressed yet often quiet, restrained and then powerfully moving, and entirely in congruence with the Church’s musical magisterium.… It strikes me that the Mass of the Americas also draws a straight line to the stunning musical contributions of the Mexican Baroque, and era to which Pope Benedict XVI himself pointed as an example of inculturation done right.… elevating and joyful… In a mass of glorious musical moments, La Rocca’s Agnus Dei is perhaps the high point, providing an appropriate drama and pathos to lead us into the mystery of the Eucharist.… La Rocca’s biggest departure and perhaps also his deepest meditation on the disc: the luminous, deeply felt, and pleasantly surprising Aue Maria.… look for it to become one of La Rocca’s most performed works in both liturgical and non-liturgical settings in the future. … The nature of the recordings themselves is praiseworthy: they are of a very high fidelity, capturing expressive, polished and evocative performances.”
