Abstract

"Modern jazz can be considered an equal part of modern music, owing to the numerous experiments, at times considered strange or not really agreed by the audience. When talking about modern musical life and the possibilities for making music in a proper manner, no doubt that the value and genius of composers like Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart or Ludwig van Beethoven must be recognized. However, one must also realize that modern life, with its modern, contemporary music is also needed. The great jazz saxophonist, Charlie Parker considered improvisation the middle of the earth, the place where, if only for a few brief moments, one can be the best and the greatest composer in the world. Furthermore, the idea of a song (theme) is the only reason for musicians to come and elaborate together, with variational spontaneity, a unique and maybe unrepeatable musical manifestation. The works of Chick Corea reflect this point of view, as the analysis of the work Spain (1972), discussed in the article bellow, will demonstrate. The work represents the fusion between Spanish music and the compositional methods of modern jazz music, reflecting Corea’s unique style. Improvisation lies at the basis of this composition, offering the musician a multitude of possibilities for expressing his ideas regarding freedom and human nature. Keywords: jazz, piano improvisation, spontaneity, creativity, harmonical knowledge, contemporary "

奇克·科雷亚1972年西班牙即兴创作的基本分析
现代爵士乐可以被认为是现代音乐的一个平等的组成部分,由于无数的实验,有时被认为是奇怪的或不被听众真正同意。当谈到现代音乐生活和以适当的方式制作音乐的可能性时,毫无疑问,像沃尔夫冈·阿马迪斯·莫扎特或路德维希·范·贝多芬这样的作曲家的价值和天才必须得到承认。然而,人们也必须认识到,现代生活及其现代、当代音乐也是需要的。伟大的爵士萨克斯管演奏家查理·帕克认为即兴创作是世界的中心,在那里,即使只有短暂的片刻,一个人也可以成为世界上最好、最伟大的作曲家。此外,歌曲(主题)的想法是音乐家们聚集在一起精心制作的唯一原因,具有变化的自发性,这是一种独特的,也许是不可复制的音乐表现形式。Chick Corea的作品反映了这一观点,正如下文讨论的对西班牙(1972)作品的分析将证明的那样。该作品融合了西班牙音乐和现代爵士乐的作曲方法,体现了韩国独特的风格。即兴创作是这个作品的基础,为音乐家提供了多种表达他关于自由和人性的想法的可能性。关键词:爵士乐,钢琴即兴,自发性,创造性,和声知识,当代
