Arreglos de temas seleccionados del compositor Chuck Schuldiner para cuarteto de cuerdas y guitarra eléctrica

Abstract

Through the creation of arrangements the present work has the objective of the fusion of academic music with one of the sub genres considered the most extreme within the field of Heavy Metal, the same that will be analyzed from an academic point of view by means of a formal, structural and harmonic analysis, in the same way the arrangist techniques and extended techniques used for the creation of the same will be described. Although there are works that have fused academic music with popular music and we can even find a lot of examples related to Rock and Heavy Metal, this fusion with the more aggressive and extreme sub-genres of Heavy Metal has not been explored for this reason this work is a contribution to academic music specifically to the repertoire for string quartet and even means a possibility of the study of Extreme Metal from an academic musical perspective. Finally after making the arrangements we can conclude that the chamber music has a dynamic / sound spectrum so broad and complete that it has the ability to perform any type of music from something very slow and delicate to something strong and aggressive, on the other hand Extreme Metal nature shows a potential to be transcribed into these formats thanks to its rhythmic richness and virtuosity.
