Abstract
The goal of this project is to gain an understanding of how the presentation, preparation and performance of radically different improvisational musics affect the creative processes of classically and jazz trained student musicians in a rural state university in Northern California. Interviews, journal entries of the student musicians working across disciplines, and the observations of the embedded researcher culminate in a live CD recording. The literature review provides a vocabulary and history of related research.
