Britten - Reveille for violin and piano. You can download the PDF sheet music Britten - Reveille for violin and piano on this page. Britten composed Reveille for the Spanish violinist, Antonio Brosa. Reveille was first heard at London, on 12 April 1937, when Brosa was accompanied by Franz Reizenstein. It was well known among his friends that the violinist found waking up in the morning a difficult undertaking. Hence the title of this concert study (The composcr was a notoriously early riser), and hence too the tempo indication Andante-rubato e pigro (lazy). Reveille was clearly intended as a virtuoso showpiece for the violin. The piano assumes a subsidiary role, providing a basic harmonic background against which the composer sets off a vivid display of technical fireworks.
