Crutches-n-Scooter - for trumpet ensemble

This piece was conceived during a time when, due to an ankle injury, my primary modes of transportation were crutches and a knee scooter. The first half of the piece is slow, uneven, and meandering; much like somebody using crutches to get around. The second half of the piece, however, launches the ensemble into a speedy, no holds barred ride on the scooter. As I quickly discovered on my daily adventures across town, a path that looks smooth generally possesses a number of bumpy imperfections, which can interrupt the flow of movement. Despite the rough terrain, with enough care and caution, it was still possible for me to glide around and enjoy the ride.
