Cool Kicks (Percussion Ensemble 10) - Daniel Montoya Jr.

I like sneakers. A lot. Some might call me a collector; others a sneakerhead. I prefer the term “sneaker enthusiast.” I don’t think of sneakers as utilitarian but rather as works of art for your feet. As the saying goes, “I make shoe contact before eye contact.” When approached about writing a new piece for Spring HS (Spring, TX), their director, JD Guzman, mentioned the percussion ensemble would be wearing sneakers for their performance. Due to my affinity for sneakers, he thought it appropriate to write a piece that drew attention to their “cool kicks.” At last, an opportunity came for me to merge my love of sneakers with my love of writing music! "Cool Kicks" allows all performers to play at least one instrument utilizing their feet and draws inspiration from songs and artists who also celebrate their love of sneakers. As percussionists, we are fortunate enough to be able to use our hands, fingers, and feet to play our instruments. We are cool musicians, playing cool instruments while looking cool doing it. We might as well be rocking cool kicks! – D.M.
