Mvt. 2: The Light begins with a soft flute section unison and spreads throughout the entire ensemble, growing in complexity and depth, as the music progresses, much like how light begins as a single photon at its source and spreads exponentially to become larger and brighter rays, beams, and washes.

Mvt. 3: I am the Crazy One celebrates following one’s own individual path to enlightenment, which contributes to a lighter and brighter collective. The music is pulsing, driving, and forward-moving toward a climax that also features themes from the earlier movements.
