Composición y arreglo del Himno del Gloria en formato SATB, aplicando las técnicas de orquestación del arreglista Kirby Shaw.

Abstract

This academic work for degree completion was made with the purpose to innovate and bring to the chorus of Ecuadorian liturgical music in SATB format. Therefore, a composition and orchestration was developed with a much known tittle used for the liturgy celebration, El himno del Gloria. The musical resources used were themes such as All The Things You Are and Agnus Dei by Kirby Shaw, arranger for a diversity of Capella institution like The COS Vocal Jazz assemble, Jefferson State Choral Coalition and many other similar groups in Colorado, and California. This research was made in the period B of 2017 (October, 2017 – February, 2017). Its focus is qualitative, based on the deductive and observational investigative method. The material to recollect the information for this research were song’s transcripts, interviews, audio analysis, musical scores, other musical academic works, books, and articles about music. Finalizing the job, it could be shown that the implementation of contemporaneous musical resources just as Kirby Shaw’s arranges in a liturgy musical like El Himno Del Gloria, provided innovative sounds without affecting its use for its ecclesial service. Also it can adapts and be used in other musical environments. It’s expect musicians willing to make compositions of liturgical music with innovative orchestration to use this result as a guide and intensive without affecting its principal function for liturgical music.
