poem by Robert Frost
This original setting of “The Road Not Taken” is a poem that connects deeply with our most important life choices. I composed this piece after I just had a one-on-one conversations with several of my high school seniors; each student was trying to figure out what school was the right fit for them, but felt a sense of fear that whatever choice they made would leave doubt in their minds. “What if I chose the wrong school?”
We may believe that we are destined down the road that we are supposed to take. Even so, there may still remain a twinge of wonder or even regret about that other opportunities we passed up.
This setting of “The Road Not Taken” is intended to bring out the wonder and the doubt every step of the way.
