Das Christ Guys-Album
This collection of seven pieces for male-voice choirs and ensembles originated as a composition commissioned for the concluding service of the German Katholikentag 2004. This combination of voices is most familiar to us through the Comedian Harmonists; it has never before been used prominently in a liturgical context. These bold arrangements of new compositions can give rise to a novel sound picture, which is both startingly new and at the same time sounds familiar.

Hodie Christus natus est II
Für den Abschlussgottesdienst des Deutschen Katholikentages 2004 in Ulm entstand diese Sammlung mit sieben Sätzen für Männerensemble und Orgel bzw. Klavier, und damit in einer Besetzung, wie sie von den Comedian Harmonists her vertraut ist. Die sieben Sätze ... weisen ihn [Thomas Gabriel] als in diesem Genre äußerst kompetenten Komponisten aus, wobei als besonders bemerkenswert die Vertonung des Evangeliums Lk 9,18-22.24 hervorzuheben ist! Großartige neue liturgische Musik!
