As this musical allegory unfolds, the world's religions are discovered one by one, with the musical textures growing more resplendant with each new discovery. The final pages are a glorious feast of light – a dazzlement brought about not by knowledge, but by wonder.
The central movement of Kindling: Small Reflections on a Limitless Faith, So Much Radiance may be performed as a stand-alone piece.
* Note: The Choral Score is designed to be used with chamber ensemble performances as well as those accompanied only by piano. For all chamber ensemble performances, the conductor should use the Conductor's Score of the complete work (SEA-123-00).
