Trust in the Art of Free Improvisation explores how trust manifests across diverse musical genres and contexts that contribute to free improvisation.
Using an interdisciplinary approach which combines insights from sociology, psychology, and performance studies, Trust in the Art of Free Improvisation provides a holistic understanding of trust in creative collaboration, audience engagement, and musical flow. The authors substantiate their analyses with commentary from highly respected practitioners and musicians who perform on world stages. Using a theoretical framework grounded in real-world practice, this book offers fresh perspectives on trust in the creative process.
Trust in the Art of Free Improvisation will appeal to academics exploring improvisation and musicians in the fields of creativity and communication. Given the interdisciplinary nature of the book, it will also be of interest to students and researchers in the fields of musicology, artistic research, sociology, psychology and arts education.
