New Improvisation
on: May 30, 2009, 05:29:26 PM
Its been a while since my last one, hope to make them more frequent.

This improv has a couple of key changes and lots of different ideas, some i like and some not so much, but the all seem to end up on the same idea, i was playing with lots of dynamic changes also.

Hope you enjoy.

comments and critisim are very welcome
