May Choice Video (1 of 2) - Olive Tree Snippet 3 (Patreon)

Hello friends! Here is the first of two choice videos for May! This video is another snippet from the cut song Olive Tree! This is the bridge!

While I do love the melodies here, this clip reminds me of why I am re-writing songs 39 and 40. This draft serves its purpose in terms of providing a pretty song that reunites Penelope and Odysseus and incorporating a major element from the source material, but what it is missing from my intentions is its incorporation of the main theme of the show. This is the ending of an epic tale. Everything in EPIC, every loss, heartbreak, battle, EVERYTHING leads to this precious moment between two loving souls who haven't seen or touched each other in TWENTY YEARS. What does Penelope’s response to Odysseus's transformation say about love and ruthlessness in the world?

I hope to capture all these elements as I continue rewriting the final songs. :)
