Welcome to ImprovFriday

CC 3.0 All works at ImprovFriday, unless marked (NMC) are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 United States License. ImprovFriday - An online new music event. What first started out as a two hour event now spans three days (its a world time clock thing)! The rest of the time is for listening to music, hanging out and sharing ideas. Each week the music will kick off between 2-4 pm Thursday, PST, concluding at 10 pm Saturday, PST. It's very easy to join in, all you have to do is post an improvisation or a piece with strong improvisational elements. We put up this site to serve as a home for your creativity. The event is held in the forum. Detailed instructions and rules are located here. Visit there if this is your first time participating. Note: We use an embedded media player on the site. Just look for the small gray tab in the bottom-left of any page; click it and you'll see a playlist for all the tracks on the page. Happy music making and listening!
