Woman Who Fell Asleep At Symphony Screams When Music Wakes Her

Earlier this month, Redding, California's North State Symphony performed Stravinsky's "Firebird." Part of the piece features calming woodwinds played in a way that is so relaxing, one woman in the audience fell asleep to it... only to be harshly awoken at the next movement, which begins with a loud boom from the bass drum.  

The sound shocked the audience member so much she woke up not just with a jolt, but an ear-piercing scream as well. 

Other audience members, the musicians and even the conductor all had to let out a chuckle at the disruption.
