Research Abstract	This research is to find out the roles of musical creativity and improvisation in musical community for participants with and without disabilities both practically and theoretically. Through the investigations on the musical practices, we could find out the member's different motivations and values. By examining these findings interdisciplinary, it is suggested that the individual and social problems are realized organically within musical improvisation or creative activities, which will then lead to sustain and further develop the community.
