Pursuit voices the idea of its title with the interplay of three themes.  The first begins as a curiously remote melody, a distant voice calling for discovery.  The next comprises a series of tensely focused chords, stealing forward tentatively as if for a closer look.  The third launches off in a careening sprint along an uncertain, twisting path, pursuing…something fulfilling, satisfying. The initial melody periodically interrupts the chase, eventually growing more insistently present, until the pursuit is overtaken with wonder.
