Let's Start the Engines : en 9 andere stukjes om mee te improviseren / and 9 other pieces to improvise with / Huub de Vriend
Description:
"Let’s start the engines" consists of ten improvisation pieces. They are meant for anyone who has never improvised. All pieces must be performed with two or three persons except for ‘Montuno’.
If the pieces are performed with three persons then one person has to play the bass, a second one the middle part and a third person the upper part, usually the part with the improvisation. The parts can also be played an octave higher or lower.
If you perform the pieces with two persons, 1 person plays the accompaniment and the other one the melody and / or improvisation. The improvisations and melodies can also be performed on other than simple key instruments.
