Visiting Artist Series
Phrasing and Improvisation in Brazilian
Music
Material covered includes several studies on articulation, phrasing, styles, improvisation, and rhythmic
variations. We will take a close look at notation, interpretation of syncopated rhythms and melodic
characteristics and improvisation elements of each style. Practice, readings, assignments, transcrip-
tions, and listening of examples from several recordings will include analysis of melodic interpretation
through the study of Choro, Samba, Partido Alto, Samba-funk, Bossa Nova, Baiao, ljexa, Xote and
Frevo styles. Students will learn to differentiate and use appropriately jazz, and urban and folk articula-
tions. They will be able to improve their technique and improvisation skills that relate to those styles.
