Music for
Piano Trio/ The March of
Folly was inspired by
Barbara Tuchman's book of
the same name. In her
book, Ms. Tuchman defines
folly as, the pursuit by
governments of pursuing
policies contrary to
their own interests. In
the preface she asks, why
do holders of high office
so often act contrary to
the way reason points
seem so often not to
function? She illuminates
four decisive points in
history that illustrate
the very heights of folly
in government, and
illustrates folly as 'a
child of power'.
