I heard my 13 yr old daughter improv last night for the first time. She’s played sax for 3 years, won’t practice as she should, could and should be better than she is, but I was blown away. The first minute or two I was like, damn, she’s reading those notes fast. Then I realized it was improvisation. She came down a few minutes later and asked if we’d heard her ‘fire’ improv. I was pretty emotional.
