Violin in Jazz
Improvising on the violin is a blast. I’m aware that I’m one of the few violinists playing an electric violin and improvising in jazz, rock, blues, fusion, r&b, etc. I’ve been doing so for decades. In the last few years, dozens of violinists have started improvising on electric or acoustic violin. From what I’ve heard of them, they’re doing a wonderful job. If you’re an improvising violinist, or want to become one, join this blog.

I often improvise when playing violin for salvation army outdoors, and I believe not many violinist can do real improvisation (meaning not drawing from your fixed library of motif). We are very interested in doing research on finding out how brain works when doing real improvisation. Please email me if you want to be the test subject.
