    An ingenius way to be a creative improvising musician
  

*by D***Y on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 April 2021*

I love this book, ( i wished the ebook was out when I brought mine) it has helped me so much to get to core of playing music. I have had to spend time devloping my ear over my life and this has helped to apply intervals in creatively easily especially "Melody Paths". I use the great videos on youtube to help gain a richer understanding and practice everyday. I sing the intervals when even take the dog for a walk.  I can not recomend this book enough, give your brain a rest from even thinking of  improvising from a dorian mode to a Lydian doniant 7th mode and connect to the sounds. You don't have time to inlectually process the theory it becomes a handicap. \So if you don't know the theory of dorian etc this is a massive help, and a  great book. If you do this will help free your mind to apply it in a musical way. After all we all want to be artistic and creative. Alternative become a musi profressor and never write a song or play a spontaneous solo, IFR would be in my top music books ever , buy it you will not regret it a great investment

    Want to improvise and play by ear? Buy this book!
  

*by C***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 July 2018*

Here's the short version: if you're looking for a method that's simple and enjoyable, and at the same time actually trains your ear and teaches you how to improvise, then buy this book!Long version: I've only had this book about 2 months, and I'm already seeing improvements in how I approach improvising and playing the piano. I've been an amateur musician for about 12 years, and my practice routine till now has consisted of learning other people's music and then playing these pieces over and over again. And learning scales and music theory.I never knew how to improvise, and I always looked at playing by ear and improvising as black magic - something reserved only for the elite or gifted players. David Reed's IFR program has given me a completely different perspective. I'm now incorporating ear training exercises and improv into my routine, and I'm enjoying the process a great deal!Buy this book, and check out the other materials too on the Improvise For Real website.

    Really different
  

*by D***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 February 2014*

I have not worked through the whole book yet as this will take some time. However, I have found the approach is very 'user-friendly' and really uncluttered with little concern for musical theory. Therefore, it is very easy to get started and grasp the basic ideas.  No doubt, as will everything, progress will be dependent on how much time the student regularly gives to the exercises.  I have yet to find out how it will end, but it is so far very promising and a most interesting approach to approaching improvisation.
