Kyrie (from Mass No. 6)
Gyorgy Orban
SA
Hinshaw
$10.99

Kyrie is only available in the full mass, but some schools may have it in their library since Gloria from the same mass was done at All-State a few years back. We are currently working with Hinshaw publishing for a printing of the Kyrie movement alone. If this is not possible we will have a substitution for this song. We will update the status on this as soon as its available.
A few notes from the clinician:

  • Aboriginal Song is listed as SATB, but will be done SA (soprano on top line, alto on bottom line)
  • Butterfly can be purchased directly for a cheaper price here. Copy/paste the address into a new browser window.
