Four Short Prayers of Saint Francis of Assisi were introduced to Poulenc by his nephew Jerome, a Franciscan monk, who asked the composer to set them to music. Poulenc found these prayers very inspirational, as he was deeply moved spiritually and at the same time intimidated by the Saint's humility.
Robert Kalwas has done a marvelous job arranging these four short works (timing is about 7-8 minutes) for a sextet or 6-part ensemble of Trombones. All parts are in bass clef. This arrangement will work nicely for moderately advanced.
