Impromptu (2024)
This piece was written as an improvisation on paper. The past few years I have been deeply involved in Atonal improvisation. So much so, I wrote a book on it called “Atonal Improvisation and Jazz”. I approached the composition of this piece in the exact same manner as I would have approached an improvisation on my instrument. I thought of a starting note and structure, and improvised from that on paper with ideas from the book. The piece, like an improvisation, is not perfect, but what I wrote is what I wrote, and it cannot be changed.
