Improvisation Concepts Workshop 1

Department - PERF
Offered - Fall, Spring
Course number - PS-190

This multipurpose course provides an opportunity for students to participate in a "nonstylistic" improvisational environment as a means to explore musical communication and develop improvisational performance skills. Students will perform on a weekly basis in a variety of improvised settings while boundaries, structure, and musical focal strategies are provided by the instructor. Discussion and critique follow each performance and students are expected to participate. All ensemble combinations are explored (e.g., full ensemble, trios, duets, and solos).
