Beginning with the early history of jazz, the music has expanded to embrace seemingly every culture and musical style throughout the world. One approach that still remains relatively unexplored by jazz improvisers is serialism and the twelve-tone compositional approach developed in the early 20 th century. For many jazz improvisers, their musical language does not extend past harmonic vocabulary of the romantic and impressionistic composers of the late 1800's and early 1900's. Though a kind of serial-sound or texture has been demonstrated by some jazz improvisers, such a musical vocabulary has seldom been incorporated in a formal way. In 1997, guitarist Bruce Arnold and I formed a jazz group we named Spooky Actions. This research will describe Spooky Actions' adaptation of Five Piano Pieces, Opus 23 by Arnold Schoenberg, an important work in the development of serial and twelve-tone methods of composition. Spooky Actions recorded Op. 23 in 2006 incorporating improvisation related to structures contained in the original composition. In so doing, Spooky Actions has developed a unique musical syntax through the ensemble's application of serial concepts to improvisation, thereby extending the musical language of the jazz idiom. Through analysis of transcriptions of the ensemble and individual improvisations, this study will show how the group approached improvisation in this unique context and the extent to which serial or twelve-tone methods were employed. Additionally, by analyzing this syntax, the processes Spooky Actions utilized may inform others interested in extending their own compositional and improvisatory vocabulary. As part of this research, a broader context is given through examining Op. 23, Schoenberg's development of his twelve-tone method, approaches to improvisation in jazz and classical music, and examples of serial approaches in existing jazz composition and improvisation.
