Description
Desperate Attitudes was commissioned by Michael Burritt and the Northwestern University percussion ensemble, and was premiered in May of 1998, Michael Burritt directing. The original musical ideas for the composition were created the day after the death of Princess Diana. The title refers to attitudes which cause many negative and unnecessary things to happen. There seems to be a great appetite for these kinds of things in our society today. The music bears no resemblance to the original ideas that I composed on that dark day. Instead, as the music progressed, it took on a more happy, vital, and dance like spirit .
