A note for a modular course

Description

On this note, titled "Re: BK Modular Course", Barney Kessel outlines his ideas on improvisation. The note likely aligns with Kessel's Modular Course cassette recording from 1978, which can be found in the Barney Kessel Audiovisual Collection in the Marr Sound Archives. He warns performers against habitual repetition. Kessel shows the conceptual side of his teaching, speaking of "becoming enchanted" with areas of music.
