Awakening : for clarinet (optional violoncello) and piano / Tony Wheeler.
Library shelf no. 788.62/WHE 4 [Not for loan]
Work Overview
This work was originally commissioned as a piece of HSC repertoire, and is of medium difficulty. It utilises the wide ranges and rich timbres of the bass clarinet and the Bb clarinet. The writing is strongly melodic throughout, integrated with harmonic material which ranges from mildly dissonant to decidedly diatonic. The transition in harmonic material can be seen in some ways to reflect the title of the piece, representing perhaps a transformation from clouds and mist to clear, blue skies and sunlight.
