347. THE CONCEPT OF PROBABILISTIC IMPROVISATIONAL COUNTER MELODIES OF A MELODY.

 This concept is based on playing strictly the centers of the melody that fit the underlying harmony of the chords, but surround them with a statistical or probabilistic "cloud" of fast notes of the diatonic scale that the song is in it so that they do not last more than 50% of the duration of the melodic center. Such fast improvisations occur in flamenco improvisations and in gypsy jazz improvisations. It is also much of the tricks that the folk harp is playing in Paraguay, Colombia, Peru etc .
