Program Note

As I walk along the same path every day, I discover different views each time. The landscape is constantly changing, and nothing ever remains the same. Change can bring a sense of newness and variety, but it can also make us feel lonely and hollow. Every moment in life is also transient, but that is what makes it so beautiful and meaningful. This piece is about the emotional journey of myself walking along the path, exploring both confusion and tranquility that arise from experiencing the transience of life.
