Improvisation @
Wikipedia
Musical
improvisation is the
spontaneous creative process
of making music while it is
being performed. Improvisation
exists in almost all music,
but is closely associated with
particular genres such as
blues, jazz, bluegrass, the
Taqsim of Arabic and Turkish
music, Indonesian gamelan, and
Indian classical music. To use
a linguistic analogy,
improvisation is like speaking
or having a conversation as
opposed to reciting a written
text. Among jazz musicians
there is an adage,
"improvisation is composition
speeded up," and vice versa,
"composition is improvisation
slowed down."

"Welcome to the "cyber text" of
American popular music. Where
interactive hypertext redefines our
explorations of the "tonal
resources" that create the musical
sounds we love. From folk song to
the blues, towards jazz and into
pop, rock and classical, the
cybertext creates a "3d" learning
environment, inclusive of all the
sounds we dig. Exploring from the
organic sources of sound and pitch
to the brightest creative musical
stars in our musical universe who
shape them, our cyber text allows
for a wholeness of learning directed
by our own interests, passions and
curiosities of the music we
love."

"Noteflight
was founded with the vision of making
it simple for everyone to create and
share musical ideas online. We started
by building a place where individuals
could create, view, hear and print
musical scores. We established a
community where our users could invite
others to view, collaborate and
comment. We discovered that music
educators and instructors were excited
about what we were doing, so we
developed Noteflight Learning Edition.
We are constantly finding new
opportunities in partnering with
others. And as we continue learning
about new ways that people are using
Noteflight, we are constantly
introducing new features."

Bjorn Lynne's
music composition and production
tips
Welcome to my page of
"hints, tricks and tips" when
composing and producing your own
music. This page is simply a
result of "public demand", as a lot
of people write to me and ask for
tips about writing their own
music | It's actually
quite strange that I should write
this kind of stuff - as I have no
formal music education, neither in
composition nor in production. So
the cynics out there may perhaps say
that I haven't got a clue what I'm
talking about. And they are
right!" |
