Awake

Title: Awake
Level: Grade 3
Composer/Arranger: Richard Wagner/Bruce Houseknecht
Publisher: Kjos
Classification: Chorale
Instrumentation: Full with optional choir
Source: Poppler's Music Inc.
General Comments: This arrangement by Bruce Houseknecht, includes Awake, which is the chorale from Act III, Die Meistersinger, by Richard Wagner. The musical demands lay not in technique, but in good intonation and sensitive playing. This piece gives the band the opportunity to accompany voices which demand more in so far as listening and matching tone colors. This arrangement also allows the composition to be performed with or without choir.
