  • spero by Michael Burritt - performed by the Eastman Percussion Ensemble
    Andrew Bockman
    Emma Gierszal
    Micah Harrow
    Justin Lamb
    Michael Burritt - soloist
    Produced by Connor Stevens and Chris Amick
    spero means hope in latin and comes from the phrase, “dum spiro, spero” - when I breathe, I hope. During my travels this past summer while writing this piece I kept reflecting on the need for hope. It also struck me that when I do think of hope, I think about my students and young people everywhere who are the hope for the future of music and so much more.
    I have wanted for some time to write a piece for solo drum and chamber ensemble. spero features muted tenor drum and snare drum in addition to cajon. The work is a nod to one of my favorite pieces in the repertoire, Mudra, by Eastman graduate and percussion legend Bob Becker.
    spero is dedicated to Liz and Stephen Biggar for their kindness and enthusiasm for the arts.

    Man. Every time I come back I hear something new and it is mind blowing! The writing is so intricate but so tasteful. Incredible work, MJB. This inspires me to practice every time without fail! Not to mention, I can feel the emotion in the story you are telling. It really brings me hope!
    I also get way too pumped at the end, haha!
