Composer's Note:

The Horizon Beckons: The allure of the distant unknown.

I. Striving.

The driving and vigorous music of the opening movement is inscribed with a quotation from Goethe’s Faust: "Wer immer strebend sich bemüht, den können wir erlösen" (Whoever strives with all their might, him we can redeem)—words of the angels that free Faust’s soul and carry it off to paradise.

II. Dreams

The second movement is a mysterious and serene fantasy on the nature of aspiration.

III. Freedom

The finale depicts a spirited search for liberation. The movement ends with growing energy.

Movements: I. Striving II. Dreams III. Freedom
