Experimentation in Improvised Jazz: Chasing Ideas challenges the
notion that in the twenty-first century, jazz can be restrained by
a singular, static definition. The worldwide trend for jazz to be
marginalized by the mainstream music industry, as well as
conservatoriums and schools of music, runs the risk of stifling the
innovative and challenging aspects of its creativity. The authors
argue that to remain relevant, jazz needs to be dynamic,
proactively experimental, and consciously facilitate new ideas to
be made accessible to an audience broader than the innovators
themselves. Experimentation in Improvised Jazz explores key
elements of experimental jazz music in order to discern ways in
which the genre is developing. The book begins with an overview of
where, when and how new ideas in free and improvised jazz have been
created and added to the canon, developing the genre beyond its
initial roots. It moves on to consider how and why musicians create
free and improvised jazz; the decisions they make while playing.
What are they responding to? What are they depending on? What are
they thinking? The authors analyse and synthesise the creation of
free jazz by correlating the latest research to the reflections
provided by some of the world's greatest jazz innovators for this
project. Finally, the book examines how we respond to free and
improvised jazz: artistically, critically and personally. Free jazz
is, the book argues, an environment that develops through
experimentation with new ideas.
