In common with most of my larger works, the piece is not programmatic, but purely abstract; there is no extra-musical story. The choice of title chimes with my view of how composers can often develop. There can be no ‘destination’ in a composer’s career, but rather a continuing journey to an unknown place. From piece to piece a composer needs to decide his or her next steps, never really knowing where they might lead. As Frost so eloquently describes, these sorts of instinctive decisions guide all our lives.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Larch Music Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54108027257161,"sku":"AMP 500-030SS","price":15.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0820\/0178\/9257\/files\/amp500-030_0.jpg?v=1774870432","url":"https:\/\/www.larchmusic.co.uk\/products\/a-road-less-travelled-by-philip-sparke-study-score-only","provider":"Larch Music Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
