This instrumental stems from a simple progression on the nylon guitar that slowly builds and then explores a variety of landscapes. Gentle and simple at its beginning, the music becomes more dramatic as the leap gets nearer. Once the safety of the solid ground is left behind, it then gains the confidence to be more adventurous, until it reaches the grand moment of vindication wherein faith is justified by the unforeseeable increase in freedom that couldn’t have been gained otherwise. From there on, it experiences the joyous fun once more before returning to its original peaceful state.
