Orchestrating timbre : unfolding processes of timbre and memory in improvisational piano performance

Doctoral Thesis presented at the Academy of Music and Drama, Universy of Gothenburg, January 2019. "This doctoral thesis presents how the orchestration of timbre is investigated from a performer’s perspective as means to “unfold” improvisational processes. It is grounded in my practice as a pianist in the realm of improvised music, in which I often use preparations and objects as extensions of the instrument.
