Improvisation began exactly as the title suggests: in a warm-up session, with no particular plan. The piece grew from an exploration built around an open B line, moving through melodic ideas and harmonic nuances until a structured composition emerged. It remains close in spirit to how it began — unhurried, introspective, and responsive to the moment.
