Re: What About Playing 'Non-Music' ?

abrogard,

To the overall question you seem to be asking: "...what happens within a person that enables all this fluid freedom and ability when they improvise freely...":

I feel that it is much like the difference between talking (speaking whatever is on your mind), vs reading a script. Speaking your mind is almost always easier, but you might not be able to perform an exact speech the way you want without some type of notation to help you out.

If you tell a story to a child, and if you know that story so well that you can tell it in great detail and with emotion without reading it - if you were left to your own word choices and weren't confined to reading words you didn't readily know/understand...then the story would come across much more fluid and easy than if you had to stick with a straight script with difficult/confusing parts/words. It might be the same story, but it would be told very differently, with a different level of tension, distraction, or number of errors.
