First Voyage

First Voyage is a piece that captures the moment of stepping into a new chapter of life.
Rather than depicting grand resolutions or dramatic farewells, it conveys the quiet act of centering oneself and gently setting out toward the future, as if beginning to row into calm, open waters.
The piece opens with a stillness reminiscent of taking a deep breath in the faint early light, and gradually the melody expands like soft rays of dawn breaking through.
This flow becomes a space where gratitude for every person and every past moment naturally blends with hope for the path ahead.
In the middle section, flickers of anticipation, wavering emotions, and a touch of uncertainty intertwine, yet beneath them all, a steady pulse of forward-moving resolve can be felt.
As the piece moves toward its conclusion, the sound gently opens up, leaving behind the lingering sense that a first voyage is quietly beginning.
Although this piece was written to celebrate someone's departure into a new stage of life, it carries a universal prayer-one that can accompany each listener's own personal beginning.
