¹ optional, but strongly recommended
² this part should be covered by the percussionist with the highest fluency in drum set and/or jazz studies ³ shared
Note: Instrumentation is not "one on a part", but is assumed to be doubled depending on the size of the particular ensemble. Certain parts of the score indicate "one player" when a thinner orchestration is desired for the given instrument.

PROGRAM NOTE In 2015, I wrote a melodramatic piece outlining Stephen Crane’s naturalist short story, “The Open Boat”. In this story, the few survivors of a shipwreck struggle to survive on the vast expanse of the ocean.

Flirting with Disaster is my imagined prologue to this setting. A grandiose, Titanic-esque ship sets sail to glorious applause. Its passengers unabashedly celebrate under the false pretense of invulnerability. As these crowds bask in their pride and party through the night, disaster looms ever closer in the soundtrack.
ic .
Flirting with Disaster paints a caricature of the passengers’ naïveté - a satire of their grotesque cheerfulness. The piece, as comically optimistic as it is, serves first and foremost as a cautionary tale.

PERFORMANCE NOTES
id g
All glissandi last the full notated duration.
em
AL
The double bass, piano, and drum set should be positioned next to each other on stage, as in a jazz trio.
RU S
Flirting with Disaster was written for the Indiana University Concert Band as part of the IU Student Composers Association Hammer and Nail collaboration.
ttr
Premiered by the IU Concert Band on September 18, 2018; Jason Nam, conductor.
