Hi Dini, try again the video should play all the way through, about 6 minutes.

There isn't any improvisation although the notation is quite basic and there is room for 'interpretation'.

this only plays til half-way, i enjoyed the first half though.

I guess it involves some improvisation/interpretation by the players?
