The Bravest Journey: Behind the scenes with Emily Bear
This video pulls back the curtain and offers viewers a glimpse into Emily’s insights on the creation of her composition, "The Bravest Journey - a salute to veterans". Inspired by the first-hand accounts of Rockford-area veterans and their family members, thirteen-year-old Emily encapsulated the varied emotions of military personnel who had left their loved ones behind in order to fulfill their military duty with their comrades-in-arms.
On October 10, 2015, nearly 5,000 people gathered at the Stars & Stripes: A Salute to Our Veterans event in Rockford, Illinois to honor local veterans as well as the men and women currently serving in the United States Armed Forces.
Highlights included an address by General Colin L. Powell, USA (Ret.), performances by the Rockford Symphony Orchestra with the Mendelssohn Chorale and the debut of “The Bravest Journey”, an orchestral piece composed and performed by Rockford native, Emily Bear.
