Since I don't know, at this point, exactly which instruments will be available to play the piece, I've decided to write it in such a way that it's easily adaptable for different combinations.
It will have parts for 3-4 drummers, 3-4 bassists, 3-4 chord instruments (piano, guitar, etc), and 3-4 melody instruments (horns, vocals, whatever).
This forces me to think differently when writing, and hopefully come up with some ideas I wouldn't have used otherwise.
Also, with a flexible construction, the piece will have a better chance of being played somewhere else as well, in ensembles with different instrument combinations.
