Les Chemins de Traverse
Les Chemins de Traverse ont pour mission le partage de projets artistiques novateurs toujours en lien étroit avec le public : par des concerts ou spectacles hors des sentiers battus, par la transmission du savoir lors de stages, par la recherche fondamentale et des publications.
Leur atelier basé à Neuchâtel-Peseux (NE/CH) est un véritable laboratoire d'impertinence musicale et de la pensée de l'artisan musicien.

Harpejji solo 16 - Discussion on classical improvisation
(This news is part of the Harpejji solo project)
Yet another Coulisse yesterday, where I presented my recent research on adapting diverse resources about keyboard classical improvisation to the harpejji.
This sparked many questions in the audience, some of them expected and others much less so. Among others, I was surprised that some people were afraid my approach was getting too specific and that my audience might get lost in the process.
That made me realize that although the broad picture of what I was aiming was getting more and more clear to me, I didn't make it clear enough to others. That will be the subject of another post.

Harpejji solo 15 - Another improvisation book
(This news is part of the Harpejji solo project)
A few weeks ago I wrote about Gaydon's book on classical improvisation. I got aware that there's another very detailed book on the subject: Mortensen's The Pianist’s Guide to Historic Improvisation.
The approach seem quite different and somewhat complementary from Gaydon's book. I guess I will make my personal mix of both approaches and see how it tastes...

Quick improvisation following the rule of the octave as described in Gaydon's book.
