It mystifies me how one remembers all of that as clearly it has to be worked out at least with the bass player. I guess that is what I find hard about jazz. It sounds like free composition but it is all worked out. When I freely compose on the piano the music evaporates as I play and is lost into the fabric of surroundings.

I think they quite often improvise in the early stages of composition in jazz., and probably rehearsals are pretty experimental at times. I think a group of musicians who play together all the time adapt to the challenge of experimentation before they get to a place where the experimenting ends and a settled order becomes the normal run of things.

@Marionville Many years ago, when a friend came to visit we would hardly speak but instead sit down and play together making it all up. It was a soul way of saying how we'd been.
