Chamber Orchestra Choir,Choral (4-Part) - Level 3 - Digital Download The demo is computer-generated, with all the inherent weaknesses that such a recording carries. However, it will give you a pretty good idea of the big picture. I believe that in performance we usually take it a click or two slower than this recording.

Composed by Joseph M. Martin. Arranged by Lyndell Leatherman. This edition: pdf. Christian, Lent, Religious, Sacred. 35 pages. Leatherman Music Services #5800909. Published by Leatherman Music Services (A0.829350).For many years my Kansas City church used the choral piece which this orchestration accompanies (available at https://www.martin88.com/Product.aspx?Id=10771) to close their annual Tenebrae Service as the Christ candle was carried out of the sanctuary. I've never seen a better choral option for this moment in the church year! (For more information on this service, you can start with the Wikipedia discussion here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenebrae) They commissioned me to orchestrate it in order to involve our instrumentalists...and you are looking at the resulting arrangement.
This PDF contains the full score and all the parts. As is my usual modus operandi, a C score is provided, which allows a supplemental keyboard to cover for any missing instruments. Also, I should mention that there is some redundancy written in, so the piece will fly without all the instruments listed. Or you could satisfactorily use just a string section or just a woodwind ensemble. (The drum part was included with the original octavo, and is really crucial for achieving the effect of a "death march.")
