MUS 319 Free Improvisation II

This course is a continuation of Free Improvisation I, MUS 119 for select students, who will be chosen by audition, during their participation in Free Improvisation I. While the orientation of the subject is similar to the free style of Improvisation I, this class will spend more time with structures, forms and tonality, as well as atonality, electronica, performance art, etc., allowing time to be spent creating original works, being exposed to world music, and exploring innovative improvisatory techniques. The class is designed to be less about the process of improvisation and more about its performance. Students will explore alternative performance venues, and spend time improvising in front of audiences
