Work Overview
Daredevil is a celebration of the courage and boldness of adventure sports. The work explores the sheer joy and exhilaration of risk-taking, as well as the fear and danger that coexists alongside. At the same time, Daredevil embraces the absurdity of adrenaline junkies and the never-ending lengths of chasing the next rush: further, higher, faster. Written for Omega Ensemble, the piece appears in eight short movements, with land, sea and sky sports all represented: Halfpipe, Monster Truck Slo-Mo, Pegasus, Deep Sea Scuba, Reverse Bungee, Punk Pogo, Parachute, and Victory Lap.
