During the COVID pandemic Barryroe parishioner Denis O'Regan composed a new setting of the liturgy of the Mass
Thanks to the help of Bishop Fintan the liturgical text in this setting of the Mass was recently approved by the Advisory Committee on Church Music on behalf of the Irish Catholic Bishops’ Conference in August 2026.
Dubbed the Gentle Mass, free practical workshops to learn it are being offered to all singers.
