huh? it's the crux of all improvisation
stuff that is composed with all the rules that you speak of lack that spontaneity
of course, you have to adhere to certain rules, when improvising over a chord structure, but it's mostly free-form
and the "passing chords" you mentioned, feel more like sub-dominants to me, the anchoring chords are still the diatonics
