Improvising

Improvising is the single most important skill in creating original music.
It extends across the board in fields of interest from sports to technology to rocket science. Shouldn't it therefore make sense to learn it and learn it well.
Take a look at the Seattle grunge scene. Started by a bunch of no talent individuals that just wanted to scream about all the er..important problems they were facing at the time. If they didn't improvise their way beyond the portals of death, they became sophisticated Matellicas worthy of giging side by side with real musicians of a classical nature. Perhaps a little demonstration on video may help with the point. But wait a minute, What will i wear? How manny people will their be attending? If I make a mistake. will anyone notice? ...and if so, will I be crucified? Music Improvisation along with any other kind of improvisation can be a way of breaking limiting social thought barriers, the thing that all good music does. If you don't have a musical instrument,start improvising by clapping your hands to your favorite tune. Get the people around to clap their hands and follow you. Congratulations, by improvising, you have become the leader in your own band.
