Program Notes:
An idea is a powerful thing. It can lead to world-changing innovations or dead ends. Bringing an idea to fruition requires courage, persistence, and resilience against doubts and obstacles. In Uncharted Journey, the initial theme played by the flute is echoed and supported by the solo horn, symbolizing the idea gaining momentum.
Despite challenges, the idea persists, leading to new places and uniting people. As the journey continues, obstacles arise, but the theme remains, symbolizing hope and perseverance. Ultimately, the theme is embraced by the entire ensemble, signifying the idea's impact on the community. The journey ends with the flute motif, hinting at a bright future.
