- catalog abstract ""Making Music: Improvisation for Organists shows that the expression of one's musical thoughts spontaneously and coherently presumes neither a virtuosic command of the instrument nor a magisterial command of music theory. Jan Overduin shows that the great impediment to effective improvisation is simply a lack of confidence and an unwillingness to "let go." The simple but satisfying exercises, therefore, are aimed at bolstering self-confidence and let the student improvise from the start."--BOOK JACKET. "Written in an engaging style and featuring numerous accessible musical exercises, Making Music: Improvisation for Organists is the ideal first introduction to this essential skill."--Jacket.".
