Beyond the Road Ahead - Saxophone Quartet

Distance has a way of stretching time. Written for saxophone quartet, Beyond the Road Ahead captures that quiet, haunting ache that creeps in when home is far behind you and the horizon continuously, insistently keeps pulling you forward. Yet, a small-but-persistent light remains: home is never further than the path that leads you back.

The melody twists, trades, and bends nearly to the point of unfamiliarity, but retains the same core as it began with. Having transformed, the listener parts with the song with a deeper understanding of travel, time, and what home can really mean.
