leave a comment »

As discussed today, we need to decide what we’re doing this term. The current option is ‘Plan A’—to (re)introduce or (re)inject (partly) idiomatic, (recognizably) stylistic, or (consciously) traditional elements (back) into the improvisations.

Some options, listed roughly in order of time needed (i.e. high to low), you may want to consider are:

  1. game pieces
  2. collective score/part-making
  3. conduction and cueing

I look forward to hearing your decision next week.
