The Instant Composers Pool describes the meaning of \"instant composition\" from both a historical and ethnographic perspective. Historically it details instant composition's emergence from the encounter between various overlapping transnational avant - gardes including free jazz serialism experimental music electronic music and Fluxus. The author shows how the improvising musicians not only engaged with the cultural politics of ethnicity and race involved in the negotiation of the boundaries of jazz as a cultural practice but transformed the meaning of music in society particularly the nature of improvisation and performance. Ethnographically The Instant Composers Pool encourages readers to reconsider the conceptual tools we use to describe music performance improvisation and creativity. It takes the practice of \"instant composition\" as an opportunity to reflect on music performance as a social practice which is crucial not only for jazz studies but for general music scholarship.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: The Instant Composers Pool And Improvisation Beyond Jazz\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Schuiling Floris (Utrecht University Netherlands)\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Taylor \u0026amp; Francis Inc\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780815368571\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 230 Pages, 1 Line Drawings, Black And White; 32 Halftones, Black And White\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 10\/15\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\nSeries: Transnational Studies in Jazz\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Popular Culture","brand":"Schuiling Floris (Utrecht University Netherlands)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49598911643953,"sku":"IN-G-9780815368571","price":63.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780815368571.jpg?v=1724455215","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780815368571-the-instant-composers-pool-and-improvisation-beyond-jazz","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
