Odyssey

Level: Medium
Time: 7:10

Epic and deeply human, Odyssey charts a hero’s journey of Odysseus across storm, sea, and memory. From sweeping cinematic themes that recall the great film epics to the haunting lyricism of “Go the Distance”, the production blends power, pathos, and perseverance. Dark, modern jazz-inspired motifs and rhythmic intensity underscore the trials of battle and the unknown, while moments of longing and reflection bring warmth and heart. A soaring finale celebrates endurance, faith, and the pull of home — a musical voyage that reminds us that the greatest victories are often found in the return.
