| Sumario: | The current research project analyses the musical language of guitarist Wes Montgomery during his period as a leader. During this process, his performance techniques, musical resources, and sound aspects were studied. These elements were copied, later to be implemented in improvisations. In the beginning, the idea was to transcribe solos from his musical catalog and then analyze them. However, to internalize musical aspects as the articulation, the focus of the research was changed, and based on a method of acquiring his music language. To do this, a research was undertaken to find out if jazz could be considered a language, and then compare the learning of jazz to the ways of learning a spoken language. Once these similarities were established, different ways of language acquisition were revised. These were taught by musicians such as: Dave Liebman, Simon Purcell, and Clark Terry. Simon Purcells method was used since it allows language acquisition and development. In order to demonstrate this process, a series of videos were recorded, these videos show different stages of the method. In the final part of the process, several audios were recorded in order to demonstrate Montgomerys acquired language. The research line of this work is performance, thus a concert consisting mainly of music and arrangements by Wes Montgomery were performed. The final product demonstrated the implementation of Montgomerys melodic, harmonic and rhythmic devices, as well as his phrasing and time feel. |
