Cinco Canciones Berklee Valencianas: A Study of Musical Identity
Files
Abstract
Is it truly possibly to consciously combine two different traditions cohesively without dishonoring their roots? This is what I aim to explore with my culminating experience project, Cinco canciones Berklee Valencianas (Five Berklee Valencian songs). Though their formation and development were centuries apart, Spain and America share a common thread in the nascence of their most quintessential musical forms – flamenco and jazz. Many influential artists have already married flamenco and jazz, so I wanted to borrow from the classical tradition (my own musical roots) and turn to Spanish folklore.
