Reescrevendo A Sagração da Primavera: aspectos composicionais e relações dialógicas no arranjo para big band de Darryl Brenzel

Abstract

This thesis conducts a comparative analysis between the big band arrangement called The Re-(W)rite Of Spring, by Darryl Brenzel, and the original work that inspired it, The Rite of Spring by Igor Stravinsky. Using as theoretical references the concepts originated in Bakhtin's dialogism and the notions of "rewriting" in Music, together with some analysis by established authors, it will be drawn a panorama of interactions between characteristic musical materials of classical repertoire and jazz universe, assuming the hypothesis that these interactions can be highlighted in the arrangement. Throughout the twentieth century, jazz musicians have always been attentive to the development of the so-called classical music and sought to use it as a basis for their compositions and arrangements. Equally, classically trained musicians have also expressed a reciprocal interest in language and jazz sound. Considering this statement, we aim to identify the main features of the ongoing dialogue between the two contexts, taking the comparative analysis of these two works as the main axis.
