To make something up on the spot.
Improvisation is common in jazz music, when a musician makes up a solo spontaneously, as opposed to playing a written solo.
Sometimes a group of musicians will completely improvise an entire song. This is done almost exclusively by jazz musicians.
All forms of art can be improvised. Art that is improvised may be called "free" or "freestyle", like "free poetry".
A popular form of improvisation is rapping, or flowing.

A much too broad term for music.
Charlie Parker and Kenny G are both called "jazz" musicians, yet they sound nothing alike. That is because "jazz" is not a genre of music, it is a general term that refers to any kind of music that contains chords or rythms that are more complicated than that of conventional pop music.
