Análisis formal e interpretativo del concierto de graduación para piano

Abstract

This thesis contains five chapters, each one based on the pieces to be performed in the grade recital. In order to analyze and understand the musical composition, a study has been done that goes from the artistic social context, to the musical characteristics of the period and the contributions of composers of works in particular, all focused on the piano music. For this reason, each chapter is divided into subtopics that conclude with a formal analysis of the works. So we have five musical periods: Baroque and Johann Sebastian Bach, Classicism and Ludwing van Beethoven, Romanticism and Felix Mendelssohn, XX Century: Impressionism and Maurice Ravel, Ecuadorian Music and Luis Humberto Salgado. The aim of this material is to be used as a reference and support material for music students, especially for those who study piano as a career.
