Drive is a fast-paced Grade 5 piece for wind ensemble which evokes the hustle-and-bustle of driving through a cityscape. Originally composed in 2016 and revised in 2023, the initial influence from this piece came from Bayshore Blvd in Tampa, FL where drivers make their way past elegant high-rise condos on one side of the road and picturesque waterfront on the other. Throughout the piece, the listener will be taken on a high-speed adventure as they wiz past a high-rise buildings, make sharp turns with an ever-changing scenery as they drive through the downtown grid, and come to a grinding halt in bumper-to-bumper traffic all before being blast off down the highway with the reflective downtown skyline in the rearview mirror.
