The third channel deals with using improvisation as a tool in the search for one’s personal voice while searching for the interpretation of a given piece. The method of work involves examining several levels of possible structural reductions of the piece, and extemporising several possibilities of opening them up. This channel is mainly present in the part of the course dealing with the issue of different possible interpretations of solo and chamber music works. The aims of this channel of work are to enhance the implementation of structural and harmonic knowledge, as well as stylistic awareness in real-time; to enable the performer to explore different possible interpretations of the piece, while enhancing his/her creativity and freedom with fully owned structural awareness. Indirectly, this process enhances the performer’s emotional involvement with the piece and with his/her chosen interpretation of it.
