MUPR 2930 Applied Improvisation (2 Credits)

Lessons are catered toward an individual student’s needs and interests. Undergraduate students will consistently develop their foundational tools through the full range of the instrument, addressing tone, intervals, scales, arpeggios, and patterns. Students will develop their sense of improvisation vocabulary through transcription work, “licks” in all keys, and listening. Improvisation will be practiced through the memorization of standard repertoire and weekly application of a variety of improvisation tools. A student’s rhythmic foundation and variety will be developed through metronome practice. Advanced students will develop odd time signature playing, interactive improvisation, and composition skills. Finally, etudes and performance pieces that challenge a player’s abilities will be a part of the course as well.
