The following links are provided as a means to finding out more about the world of free improvisation. The sites listed have been picked by HK with the understanding that you will be able to use these as jumping off points to a significant number of other sites. We have not attempted to maintain a listing of the other sites (specific artists, labels, etc.) because of the unstable nature of hypertext links. We cannot maintain a sufficiently detailed and up-to-date listing in an efficient manner at this time, so we have opted to offer links only to those sites which offer significant value as resource guides to the spirit of free improvisation.
