For this episode I had the honour of welcoming back Professor John Salmon. John was one of my first guests on the podcast, so it’s such a pleasure to have him on again. This time, our conversation is all about improvisation. We explore jazz and classical improv, harmony, modes, melody, the difference between composing, improvising and inventing, and everything in between. This is of course a conversation that could last a lifetime; there’s so much to talk about. Nevertheless, I feel we covered much ground and I certainly learned a lot. I would also like to say that this is the first podcast episode I’ve done that has a video element; to view our conversation, check it out on YouTube.
