System 50:50 full description is here URL LINK
Short description:
The general approach is by way `free improvised music` but in 50:50 each improviser is only active/improvising for 50% of the duration of the piece of music.
As a starting point, to trial 50:50 there is a rehearsal group which is researching how System 50:50 works out in practice.
Vocalists and instrumentalists (however defined) are welcome to join this group.
In addition to these closed sessions, concert opportunities will be taken when the opportunity arises.
The quartet is drawn from the contact list of 8 or more names. It is not a closed group of four names.
