PUBLICATIONS
CALL FOR PAPERS: LEONARDO MUSIC JOURNAL 20 (2010) -- IMPROVISATION
Improvisation has been a critical component in many forms music
around the world throughout most of history and is an essential
quality of human intelligence that extends far beyond the borders of
art. It remains, nonetheless, a controversial subject in contemporary
Western music: detested and denounced by such titans as Pierre Boulez
and John Cage, embraced with equal fervor by others, and seriously
misunderstood by many. For Volume 20 of the Leonardo Music Journal we
welcome papers on aspects of improvisation in music, art and the
general realm of decision-making -- especially texts addressing the
interplay of improvisation and technology. Find out more
