Abstract

The article discusses the concept of theme and variations in music, which, according to the author, can serve as a useful aid in inspiring story-like improvisations. Legendary jazz trombonist Slide Hampton once explained that an improvised solo should tell a story the same way a good essay or paragraph gets its written message across. A brief history of musical improvisation is discussed.
