Guitar Group Class
Report
Improvisation is the art of the creative activity of "in the moment" musical composition, which combines performance with communication of emotions and instrumental technique as well as spontaneous response to other musicians, but encompasses so much more than playing fast solos. We will begin by using the blues from its earliest most basic form as a basis for developing harmonic, melodic and rhythmic musical language.
