Abstract:
Abstract Analyzing contemporary experiments in homiletical and liturgical improvisation shows fresh and exciting potential for more participation in worship. The use of Free Jazz as a paradigm for liturgical and homiletical practice is complimented by the model of Theatrical Improvisation. By rendering empirical improvisations in liturgy and preaching as interactions, a grid of participatory improvisational strategies is generated that can be usefully employed for the analysis and improvement of other pastoral practices such as pastoral care or ministerial training.

Abstract:
In the belief that the strengthening of secondary school music programs is at least partially linked to the training of prospective teachers in the techniques of improvisation, me have examined the process by which music education students reveal an understanding of improvisation, its relationship to analytical listening, the musical and social interactions that can result from its study and practice in a group setting, and ways to integrate it into the curriculum. A 5-week improvisation training segment was included in a secondary music methods course. Five 90-minute sessions were focused on

Abstract:
Abstract Unfigured basslines serve as the starting points for collective improvisation in several sections of Agostino Agazzari’s Eumelio (1606). Agazzari makes clear that musicians used such basslines for effective ensemble improvisations in his well-known treatise Del sonare sopra’l basso con tutti li stromenti (1607) and in other contemporaneous documents. Gloria Rose has identified isolated examples of written ‘tablatures of the bass’, or contrapuntal templates from which ensembles improvised. However, analysis of the harmonic and modal parameters of the vocal monody in Eumelio shows how c

Abstract:
This article presents two methods to generate automatic improvisation using training over multidimensional sequences. We consider musical features such as melody, harmony, timbre, etc., as dimensions. We first present a system combining interpolated probabilistic models with a factor oracle. The probabilistic models are trained on a corpus of musical work to learn the correlation between dimensions, and they are used to guide the navigation in the factor oracle to ensure a logical improvisation. Improvisations are therefore created in a way in which the intuition of a context is enriched with

Abstract:
It was in the mid-twentieth century that the independent theatrical form based entirely on improvisation, known now as improvisational/improvised theatre, impro or improv, came into existence and took shape. Viola Spolin, the intellectual and the logician behind the improvisational movement, first used her improvised games as a WPA worker running theater classes for underprivileged youth in Chicago in 1939. But it was not until 1955 that her son, Paul Sills, together with a college theater group, the Compass Players, used Spolin’s games on stage. In the 1970s Sills made the format famous with

In an era of constant connectedness—from Twitter tweets to the 24-hour news cycle—the need for marketers to be nimble and responsive to the needs of consumers and ever-evolving markets is greater than ever before. Indeed, being able to be “in the moment” and to react instantaneously demands a different kind of training and education than the slower paced, carefully constructed, and casually timed marketing campaigns of yesterday.

Improvisation is a construct that uses a set of minimal heuristic guidelines to create a highly flexible scaffold that fosters extemporaneous communication. Scholars from diverse domains: such as psychology, business, negotiation, and education have suggested its use as a method for preparing professionals to manage complexity and think on their feet. A review of the literature revealed that while there is substantial theoretical scholarship on using improvisation in diverse domains, little research has verified these assertions.

Jazz musicians traditionally learned jazz improvisation by transcribing other musicians they admired in order to absorb, assimilate and retain important stylistic elements of jazz. Indeed, many famous jazz musicians have testified to the importance of transcribing as part of their jazz education. By the latel960's, jazz increasingly gained acceptance as a legitimate American genre within academia. As jazz studies programs became more formalized in colleges and universities, a plethora of methods and materials have followed suit. Lately, critics of these programs claim that many of the procedur

Abstract:
This chapter highlights that we understand improvisation, largely, through talking about it. Talking about music is a fundamental part of how we make sense of music. This chapter argues that spoken definitions of improvisation serve specific psychological purposes for the speaker in creating, negotiating, and maintaining a particular line of argument, and this line of argument is linked to the musical identities and broader psychological identities of the speaker. Talking about improvising is important not just because it describes improvisation, but also because it constructs musical and social realities for those engaged in the dialogue. This chapter makes the following key points: How improvisers talk about music shapes how they engage with music; musical identities are important aspect of music making; training improvisers to understand and articulate why they value the music they like should be an important part of improvisation pedagogy; and musical identities may be more important for improvisers than for other types of musicians.

This chapter shows collaboration through the research on face-to-face collaboration, a collaboration with George Marcus as co-organizer of a series of “ethnocharrette” events at the University of California, and the results of collaborations between participants in those events. It explores the different subfields of anthropology that tend to display different general orientations to collaboration and sharing. It also discusses archaeology and biological anthropology wherein collaborative research is more or less treated as a given. The chapter cites the training in linguistic anthropology in which participants share their data order to widen the scope of possible interpretations and analyses beyond what the fieldworker can conjure. It sketches the uncommon figure of a lone anthropologist that dominates the subfield's imaginary, and basic collaborative practices like data sharing.

Abstract:
This chapter illustrates connections between Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey and the techniques of improvisation as heard in jazz performances. It starts by noting the inadequacy of the usual dictionary definition of ‘improvise’, inasmuch as it omits any consideration either of creativity or of necessary practice and training. After looking at a passage from Homer’s Iliad, and observing such well-known features as the use of repeated words and phrases (‘formulas’), it segues to jazz, noticing that similar techniques are employed, particularly repeated melodic motifs. The author illustrates (through improvisations from the jazz standard ‘Night and Day’) that these motifs can be modified and developed in much the same way as Homeric formulas. In each genre, the use of formulaic material is by no means an indication of mechanical and artless composition; rather such techniques are the fundamental tools of a creative artist composing and performing simultaneously.

Therefore, active and interactive forms of education have taken a significant place in the educational process.
