Methods of Improvisation Ensemble Fall Concert

Wednesday, December 4, 2024 at 8:30pm
Crowell Concert Hall

Free and open to the public

Wesleyan's new Methods of Improvisation Ensemble, under the direction of Assistant Professor of Music Darius Jones, performs an end-of-semester concert. In the course MUSC 459, graphic- and prose-based notations are employed to facilitate the forging of a musical language unique to the ensemble. 

"Improvisation and composition are both methods of organizing sound that create the personal sonic universe of the individual or ensemble," said Jones.
