Review:
The ethereal opening of this original tune by Brenda Austin gives way to a wandering melody of hope underscored by flowing eighth note triplets. A lively and forceful variant on the melody ensues, which propels the piece through to its energetic conclusion. The Awakening is a perfect choice for advanced ensembles in either church or concert setting. 88 measures.
