Tract Light For Dark Corner?

New sofa time is rapidly approaching (come on May!) and I can see in my families eyes that they really want the sectional. I would love a sectional but essentially talked them out of it for one reason: Our LR is too small to place a light in the corner where the corner part of a sectional would have to go. And our LR is very dark w/o lights on in all 4 corners. We have a decorative chandelier put it really is for decorative purposes only and doesn't really help 'shed light' if you will, in any dark corner.

So I thought what about a simple tract light system instead of the chandie in addition to a table lamp on each end of the sofa and floor lamp in the 3rd corner? I would focus 1 or 2 of the tract lights directly into the dark corner.

Will a tract light be sufficient in lighting the dark corner that a sectional would go in? Does that sound like a viable option?

Thanks for your input - I want us all to be happy w/ our decision.
