Large Ensemble B-Flat Trumpet,Drum Set,E-Flat Alto Saxophone,E-Flat Baritone Saxophone,Piano,Tenor Saxophone,Trombone,Tuba - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1112027 By Avicii. By Aloe Blacc, Avicii, and Michael Einziger. Arranged by Steve Davison. Contemporary,Pop. Score and parts. 22 pages. Troupe Publishing #714195. Published by Troupe Publishing (A0.1112027). Written for a 'mini brass band', this arrangement throws an oompah twist on the Avicii dance hit. Wake Me Up starts with the brass playing the rhythmic opening, before the trombone takes the melody lead. As the drums enter, the trumpets take the melody. The ensemble builds through the introduction of the famous synth line and into the first chorus. A second verse and double chorus give the band time to get the crowd dancing up a storm! This arrangement is suitable for a confident and well-rounded school or community ensemble with a lead trumpet player capable of a high D. It includes an optional keys part for stage performances, and where you feel adding rhythm section players could bolster your ensemble. Wake Me Up works equally well with an acoustic New Orleans-style brass band ensemble on the street, or with production support on the stage.
