Where We Go When

Mary Prescott's piano improvisation blog Where We Go When, documenting her transition from classical to improvising pianist.

Maya.

Mary July 26, 2012

Today's improv was truly improvised. I didn't know it was going to happen until it was already happening. In the middle of a lesson with Maya (8), we started goofing around, and this came out. It wasn't until midway through that I realized I should be recording it. So, today's improv is four hands: Primo - Maya, Secondo - Mary.

Very Bartokian, if you ask me.

Here we go, Day 347: https://ia800307.us.archive.org/27/items/Improv72612/20120726145231.mp3

About the Blog

A yearlong project that existed as a portal into an unexplored world, a highly trained classical pianist thrust herself into the foreign and terrifying land of improvisation.

"A journey that starts here and goes where. 365 days. 365 improvs. A classical pianist tries to get free."
