"Setting Out" navigates the delicate boundary between classical elegance and the vibrant textures of modern jazz. Propelled by an odd-meter groove and sharp, neat harmonies, the piece hides a moving undercurrent beneath its restrained, bright melodies. It beautifully captures the fleeting tension of "the eve of departure"—an exquisite state of mind suspended between the thrill of the unknown and the inner peace of letting go.

The quintet finds a perfect collective voice here. Alongside the flowing musicality of Strucky Yi's piano playing, guitar maestro Gilad Hekselman and bass giant Matt Penman bring a tasteful inventiveness that holds the music's inventive elements in place. Meanwhile, the piercing lines of pioneering saxophonist Nicola Caminiti and the explosive drive of phenomenal drummer Miguel Russell spark the track into vibrant life. Ultimately, the quintet strikes a sublime balance, effortlessly bridging the conversational tension of spontaneous improvisation with a beautifully crafted sense of structure.

Setting Out(啓程)遊走於傳統古典的氣質與現代爵士的色彩之間。奇數拍律動，稜角清晰的和聲在剋制，明亮的旋律線條之下暗流湧動——曲子描繪‘出發前夕’那種微妙的張力：有對未知的雀躍，也有對過往的釋懷。

在這支頂尖陣容中，音樂家們找到了近乎完美的呼吸平衡。除了易宇欽(Strucky Yi)流動具有音樂性的鋼琴演奏外，吉他大師 Gilad Hekselman 與貝斯名宿 Matt Penman 的演繹內斂而富有創造力；而薩克斯先鋒 Nicola Caminiti 極具穿透力的線條，與現象級鼓手 Miguel Russell 充滿爆發力的鼓點，如火花般點燃了樂曲的生命力。五重奏的編制在這首曲子裏找到了微妙的平衡：既有對話式的即興張力，又有精心構築的結構感。
