Stockhausen wanted to make a clear distinction between improvisation, which in his time was mostly related to Jazz improvisation, and his concept of free music. Thats why he called it intuitive music. I like that term, though all the free jazz scene of the seventies called this sort of intuitive music still improvisation... Improvisation in Jazz, Indian music or what Greatful Dead did is not free improvisation, as it follows pretty strict rules...
