A Bridge Between an Ocean is an experimental contemporary piece that deals with the elusive and sometimes damaging transition away from childhood. The premise behind the piece is that the first tenor represents a boy realizing that his childhood is fleeting away. The other sections represent his collective internal self in the form of past, present, and future, offering consoling words towards the boy. This piece is to be driven with passion and emotion, as the premise is something most listeners will find connections to in their own lives.

A Bridge Between an Ocean is a great piece for an advanced men's group and would work well in any classical contemporary performance setting. This piece may also be appropriate for advanced high school and collegiate level groups. It is suggested that a pianist sit in rehearsals (not for performance) to help the members of the choir learn their parts.
