Score
Mantra for the Y Generation : for TTBB male chorus, piano and percussion / music and words by Dan Walker.
Library shelf no. 782.8542/WAL 1 [Available for loan]
Work Overview
This rhythmic and jazzy work is a tongue-in-cheek jab at the Y Generation. The rollicking piano part and drum lines lock in a Grusin-style jazz band feel, while the text refers to the pleasures and leisures of this generation. This piece would suit a good High School or University all-male group.
