By William Joseph. By Marta Keen. Arranged by Sean Paree-Huff. This edition: pdf. Classical, Folk. 14 pages. Sean Paree-Huff #1408978. Published by Sean Paree-Huff (A0.1849302).This arrangement by Sean Paree-Huff was written to symbolize the love of their home as they begin their journey away from home. Homeward Bound by Marta Ken shares a beautiful message, and melody, about how we will always find our way back home. The line from the original choral work "Set me free to find my calling, And I'll return to you somehow" is immensely impactful to Paree-Huff as they were arranging this piece.
To create the tie back to Indiana Paree-Huff uses a split excerpt from Paul Dressar's On the Banks of the Wabash, which is the state song of Indiana. This song's bouncy melody contrasts well with the soothing beauty of Homeward Bound.
Paree-Huff hopes that this work can serve as a call to those who feel that returning home is not where life will lead. Home is not always the place we are from but the place that we hold closest. We often leave to find ourselves but we need to remember to be "homeward bound again.".
