In this thesis I have explored how to combine improvisation with technical trumpet studies by creating exercises that are based on my compositions. The goal was to develop a uniform practice routine in order to become more free as an improviser. This semester I have had the benefit to have Ingrid Jensen as a trumpet teacher and therefore the process is mainly inspired by her experience and advice. I have found new tools to incorporate in my practice routine such as practicing to a drone and applying Flow studies on self-composed phrases. I have not only noticed a difference in my playing, but also realized the importance of giving yourself time to make progress. / <p>Wheels, Fragments of Spring, New Beginnings, Morning Light, Hymn of the Forest (Linnea Jonsson är kompositör på samtliga låtar)</p><p>Medverkande:</p><p>Linnea Jonsson, trumpet</p><p>Britta Virves, piano</p><p>Bjarni Ingólfsson, gitarr</p><p>Ingrid Schyborger, kontrabas</p><p>Kristian Remnelius, trummor</p>
