Program Notes
Imagine yourself standing barefoot on a serene beach, where gentle waves rhythmically
caress the shore. As each wave gracefully rolls in, it playfully embraces your toes, only to
retreat, carrying with it the grains of sand beneath your feet. With each passing wave, their
strength ebbs and flows, but their ultimate destination remains constant - the boundless
ocean.
Inspired by the profound wisdom of Chidi Anagonye from the television series 'The
Good Place,' The Wave Returns to the Ocean serves as a musical exploration of the
profound spiritual journey of life and the eternal question of existence.
Throughout our lives, we traverse a myriad of phases - transformation, growth, grief,
celebration - much like the undulating motion of a wave gathering momentum as it
traverses the sea. Yet, in the grand tapestry of existence, we ultimately return to the cosmic
origins from which we emerged. Like the wave that surrenders itself to the vast ocean, we
too reunite with the universe, finding our place in the eternal cycle.
In this composition, the music embraces the fluidity of life's journey, weaving together
melodies that rise and fall, harmonies that ebb and flow, and rhythms that mirror the
timeless cadence of the ocean's tides. The Wave Returns to the Ocean invites listeners to
contemplate the beauty and mystery of our existence, resonating with the eternal truth that,
in the end, we all return to the vast, infinite ocean of existence.

“Picture a wave. In the ocean. You can see it, measure it, its height, the way the sunlight
refracts when it passes through. And it's there. And you can see it, you know what it is. It's a
wave.
..And then it crashes in the shore and it's gone. But the water is still there. The wave was just a
different way for the water to be, for a little while. You know it's one conception of death for
Buddhists: the wave returns to the ocean, where it came from and where it's supposed to be."
'The Good Place'
― Chidi Anagonye
