About
There are four definitions of ​"snapped" ​on Urban Dictionary:
1. To have lost one's sanity; to have been broken under intense pressure mentally
2. To become insanely enraged
3. Opposite of flopped; when someone comes through
4. When someone fulfills their potential and begins to perform dramatically better in a given sport or activity. Basically the idea of someone just rising above and outperforming all others in triumph.

This piece was inspired by all of these definitions and also includes literal snapping. Snapped​ was composed in 24 hours for Drew Hosler as part of the University of Michigan School of Music, Theatre & Dance ​Capriccio project.
