The Maze is about someone finding their way through a maze. Its three movements each tell a different part of the story.
The first movement, "Arrival", has an air of uncertainty. They take their first steps into the maze, not knowing what lies ahead of them.
In "Lost", feelings of loneliness and sadness overwhelm them. They think, “What if I never make it out of here?” Although they fear what the future holds for them, they continue on, still hoping to somehow find the exit.
In the third movement, "The Chase", they suddenly realize that they aren’t alone. They hear a new, horrifying sound. Something is coming. Loud, booming footsteps are fast approaching. They do the only thing they can think to do: run! But will they escape?
