Características do choro e do jazz em três obras de Aníbal Augusto Sardinha, o Garoto

Abstract

The present work deals with the characteristis of choro and jazz in the works Lamentos do Morro, Duas Contas and Benny Goodman no Choro by Aníbal Augusto Sardinha, Garoto (The Boy 1915-1955). The main objective was to search the rhythmic, harmonic, accentuation and interpretative characteristics of these works. We also present a brief discussion about Garoto and the Brazilian guitar, as well as the influences left from his interpretive and compositional particularity in the context of the Brazilian guitar. The theoretical contribution is based on interviews, studies of the works, as well as theoretical references such as: Antônio; Pereira (1982), Delneri (2009), Junqueira (2010), Mello (2012), Albanese (2013) and Mello; Gomide; Teixeira (2017). The results confirm the approximation of the work of Garoto with choro and jazz styles, specially the influence of the rhythmic and harmonic aspects. We conclude that the information presented corroborates the understanding of the composer's work and its interpretation.
