Lead Kindly Light - Score and Parts
Preface:
I wrote this piece with the intention of showing off very small groups of the orchestra doing very specific musical tasks. There is music for exposed soloists, four-part writing for winds, a dynamic brass choir, and 16th-note undulations and runs for strings. I hope you enjoy learning and performing it.
