The Awakening begins with a gentle clarinet theme, gradually growing in intensity to represent the gradual transition from night to day. The early sections of the piece evoke a quiet morning, with the ensemble coming to life as the music shifts to a more playful and energetic 6/8 section. Attention to dynamics and articulation brings the awakening process to life, creating a vivid musical picture of a new day.
