Wildlings (2014)was premiered by Michael Burritt and Ivan Trevino on September 9, 2014 at Eastman School of Music. The piece is heavily groove oriented, inspired drummers like Steve Gadd. It loosely features an echo concept, meaning the players often split rhythms between their parts creating a “delay” type effect. The piece also features solo and improvisational sections, creating a rather wild, free flowing environment. Michael and Ivan are both fans of the television series Game of Thrones, so the title Wildlings seemed appropriate.
