Credit for the term "starburst" must go to Dr. Roger Keele. In Howells' mass settings, the text "World without end" is often treated in a superb manner - the "starburst" motif. In my opinion, Howells fashioned some of the most satisfying settings of the "Gloria." Give his works a try, you will love 'em!!!
