Acrostic Song (from Final Alice)
This moving piece is the lullaby-like concluding aria from Pulitzer Prize-winning composer David Del Tredici's
Final Alice, the fifth of six large works for soprano and orchestra based on Lewis Carroll's
Alice in Wonderland books. This arrangement for band is designed to be playable by a wide variety of groups, appropriate for large or small ensembles. The gentle melody, heartrending harmonies, and artful instrumental voicing give this piece a truly timeless feel. (6:00)
Recorded by the University of Texas Symphony Band – Kraig Williams, conductor
