Musical
improvisation is the creation of spontaneous music. Improvisation is often
considered an act of instantaneous composition by performers, where
compositional techniques are employed with or without preparation. Improvisation
is a major part of some types of music, such as blues, jazz, and jazz fusion, in which
instrumental performers improvise solos and melody lines. In the Western art
music tradition, improvisation was an important skill during the Baroque era and
during the Classical era; solo performers and singers improvised virtuoso
cadenzas during concerts. However, in the 20th and 21st century, improvisation
played a smaller role in Western Art music.
