This project focuses on the composition of original songs, researching, analyzing, and merging sound resources and instruments from both national and foreign genres, specifically the "albazo" (Ecuadorian) and jazz (a globally originated music born in New Orleans). The set objectives involve composing two fusion songs for a mixed ensemble format, delving into the musical characteristics of the chosen genres and their main influencers. Additionally, a formal analysis of the composition techniques of each style is undertaken, followed by the composition and explanation of the compositional process of the pieces. The methodology used follows Jan LaRue's approach, which outlines fundamental stages: background, observation, and evaluation. The results of this work encompass a theoretical foundation of the two styles used, achieved through formal analysis and subsequent adaptation to function as a fusion. Furthermore, there is a detailed account of the composition process. It is concluded that the fusion of "albazo" and jazz is feasible, as supported by the results tables. This work can serve those who intend to work with these two styles later, taking into account the ease and challenges they might encounter in the compositional process
