First released as a single in 2012, "Brave" was included in josh's sixth album, "All That Echoes" and included in the "All That Echoes" World Tour. Groban says the song is about about rejuvenation. It is an anthem in the style of "You Raise Me Up."
Josh Groban's musical style is often placed in the "classical" category, so it was perfectly natural to take this tune a step further and design it for recitals, seminars, recruiting tours, and for the advanced players in one's studio. Your accompanist will like the way the pizzicato rhythmic figures in the string section have been "fleshed out" with notes on strong beats to help make the rhythm "fit the hand" better.
Of course, it would be a great show-piece for social and civic events; its inspiring message would even serve in church-related functions. It may take a bit longer to get under the fingers, as anything worth "showing off" would demand. Keep your eye open for performance opportunities for social groups tackling issues like depression and self-image.
