The process of improvising: (1) learn chords thoroughly (or choose a progression like the circle of fifths); invent a motive; stick to one style (don’t drift into others); gradually introduce more syncopation, ornamentation, rhythmic subtlety, and range. Â Demonstration.
Hi Dr Liesch,
This is a really helpful document on free improvisation.
I have been doing free improvisational electric guitar for a while as part of my church’s worship services. However, I have been doing it mostly by ear, so your document has giving me some new things to think about.
Thank you.
Have a good day,

Good!
