Abstract

This degree work, registered in the modality of creation - interpretation, has as its central axis the creation of the pieces Cayeye and Brisa nocturna through the resource of improvisation and, likewise, to allow the musical extension of the structural elements exposed in each section of each piece at the moment of improvising in the style of Latin jazz. To understand this in a more solid way, a brief historical context around jazz is made, showing how the different musical cultures were mixed through time, giving birth to what we know today as Latin jazz. Gonzalo Rubalcaba is a clear exponent of the convergence of jazz and Latin jazz, therefore, we will analyze the manuscripts "50" and "Nueva Cubana" belonging to the discographic work XXI Century in which he will investigate the way in which the element of improvisation is manifested both in the creation of the pieces, as well as in their extension.
