This short group of remarks touches on several important matters: It provides a critique of the concept and term "improvisation" as it has been used in the history of scholarship; it briefly traces the changing concept of improvisation in the history of musicology (including ethnomusicology and music theory); and it ends with suggestions for future research, particularly as it concerns intercultural comparative study
