Centre for Classical Improvisation and Creative Performance
The Centre for Classical Improvisation and Creative Performance was created in early 2006 and is headed by David Dolan.
The purpose of the centre is the revival of the tradition of extemporisation within western art-music performance practice, such as improvised cadenzas, repeats and fantasias, while striving to enhance spontaneity and risk-taking in interpretation and performance.
The centre offers an international meeting-point for research, training, open workshops and performances related to classical improvisation and a creative approach to art-music interpretation.
