Abstract

The author offers her thoughts on musical improvisation. When playing composed music on the flute, she tries to support the ideas, the fantasies and the structures of the composer. Playing composed music is a three-way trust between composer, performer(s) and the field of ears. As a performer, she feels responsible for not only understanding composed music but for making use of performance practice. The full use of performance practice resembles improvisation.
