Description
This percussion ensemble, which was written for the Wisconsin Youth Symphony Orchestras Percussion ensemble, is a jazz inspired blend of the music that fascinated me when I wrote this. It is inspired by the work of Claude Debussy and Jacob Collier, because I felt like there ins't really much in the way of a percussion ensemble in that vein. It is also inspired by the idea of Sisyphus, the Greek Myth, and the idea of a phoenix burning up to become renewed.
