A Jazz Performer’s Guide to Selected Genres of Venezuelan Folk Music
(May 2013)
Abstract of a doctoral essay at the University of Miami.
Doctoral essay supervised by Professor Gary Keller.
One hundred thirty-eight pages. (138)
A jazz performer’s guide to selected genres of Venezuelan folk music was edited,
providing a repertoire as well as performance guidelines. Selection of genres and
repertoire was guided by a combination of suggestions from an expert panel and a review
of related literature. Featured genres were
gaita, joropo
and Venezuelan
merengue.
The
information provided in lead sheets and performance guidelines was based primarily on
the transcription and analysis of selected repertoire. To avoid using copyrighted material,
contrafact melodies were composed on the harmonic sequences of selected compositions,
based on stylistic elements observed in the transcription process. Performance guidelines
were directed to piano, bass and drum instrumentalists, and they are intended for
musicians who have a basic understanding of jazz harmony, but are not familiar with
traditional Venezuelan genres. A bibliography with books, articles and recordings is
provided. Appendices include the full transcriptions of musical examples as well as
information on the work of the expert panel.
