Improvisation

"When somebody tells me that they wish they could improvise, I usually reply, 'If you REALLY want to, you will.' This may seem a hard line to take, but if the will to improvise exists, there is no reason why anyone, with however limited a command of their instrument (or voice), cannot realise their ambition. The degree of proficiency attained obviously varies with individual abilities and, above all, the amount of personal effort."

As much time as possible should be allocated to ear training. There are many courses available on the market—such as the David Burge course—for both perfect and relative pitch development.

The development of harmonic knowledge should be ongoing, and to this end, the use of a keyboard of some kind is imperative. Don’t worry about how bad a pianist you are—you can only improve!

An improviser draws upon any sources available to enhance their vocabulary—a popular song, a Chopin waltz, the modes of Messiaen, or the pandiatonicism (simpler than it sounds) of Stravinsky. It is very healthy to expose yourself to a wide spectrum of music. This will likely lead to the development of other skills such as musical analysis or composition, which can be useful when engagements are thin and you can turn to arranging, writing a jingle, or even scoring a film!

All the pieces in this book have a theme followed by a quasi-improvisational section and a reprise of the theme. If you wish, feel free to invent your own improvisation, play the written one, or perhaps use the first four bars of the written one as a springboard. Imbue these pieces with your personality, making alterations and decorations as you feel them."
