SUMMARY:Piano Improvisation Workshop 1: Approaches\, Styles\, and the Composition-Improvisation Continuum
DESCRIPTION:Piano Improvisation Workshop 1: Approaches\, Styles\, and the Composition-Improvisation Continuum.  Both workshops will include elements of everything from Baroque to jazz and “free” improvisation\, and explore the fluidity between the realms of pre-meditated composition and more spontaneous improvisation. No previous improvisation experience required! Workshop 1 will explore Louis Couperin unmeasured preludes\, improvising on works of J.S. Bach\, classical idioms\, and florid romantic improvisation.
