'Improvise' introduces keyboard improvisation in the F blues idiom. Emphasis is on learning a jazz feel through scat singing as well as building rhythmic and melodic vocabularies. Although the solos and exercises have been written specifically for the piano, the psychology and the basic learning techniques of improvising can be applied to all instruments. The CD includes rhythm-section accompaniment at three tempos as well as examples of improvising using two, three, four and five segments of notes.
