Procedimientos de abstracción y síntesis en las "17 cançons populars catalanes per a piano" (1995) de David Padrós

Resumen

The 17 Cançons populars catalanes per a piano by David Padrós (born 1942) emerge from a proposal to retrieve some selected sources of popular music, with the aim of re-performing them in the context of contemporary cult music. In Padrós� composition, the accompaniment of the original songs is closely linked to its sources, as a result of a rigorous, substantial research of the corresponding sonorous material and of its later abstraction and synthesis which, in accordance with the composer�s construction proposals, emphasises the various musical elements, highlighting those of an intervallic and diastematic character. Through the analysis of pieces 1, 4 and 6 some of these composition processes can be observed, through which interactions between the original melodies and the contemporary accompaniment appear.
