Improvisation for Classical Musicians Eric Edberg’s commentary and resources for classicial musicians who improvise, or want to.

I was delighted to see that today’s Wall Street Journal feature article on the return of improvisation to classical music performance and the training of classical musicians features what my DePauw University improvisation students are doing.  Several photos of DePauw students in action, and video footage from DePauw, are included in the online version.

If you found your way here from the WSJ article, weclome!

I’ll be posting more about what we do at DePauw soon, and we’re working to get our most recent Improvised Chamber Music concert up on YouTube. Some of my own free improvisations can be downloaded from my website/blog.

The profound influence of David Darling and Music for People on my work didn’t make it into the article (although I certainly went on and on about it with Alexandra Alter, the article’s author). My page about MfP is in a link above.
