Atmospheric and introspective, What Could Have Been explores memory, regret, and redemption through a powerful fusion of orchestral and modern sound. Opening with the haunting beauty of Sting’s “What Could Have Been,” the show unfolds into the intensity of Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 10. The colors deepen with Katahj Copley’s “Kaleidoscope Eyes,” blending shifting textures and harmonic brilliance, before surging into the raw drive of Imagine Dragons’ “Enemy” and the rhythmic complexity of Steve Reich’s “Electric Counterpoint.”The production closes where it began — in reflection — with a poignant return to What Could Have Been, leaving a lasting echo of beauty and loss.
Textured, emotional, and sophisticated, What Could Have Been invites audiences to confront the question we all carry: what remains when the moment has passed?
