Usually jazz and classical music have been viewed as polar opposites
within the music, relying on parameters such as its popular origin, the
improvisation and rhythmic harmonic structures. However from the early
jazz has existed between this style and the composers of "serious" music
exchange procedures that have enriched both languages. Authors such as
Debussy, Satie, Stravinsky, Darius Milhaud, Honegger, Hindemith,
Berstenin has accepted harmonies, rhythms and scales that are part of
different elements including jazz.
Spanish composers has been also influenced by the charming sense
that this genre of music, with composers such as Salvador Brotons, and
Carles Gumí i Prat. All of them has made a "wink" direct to the
inclusion of Jazz in Classical Music.
Finally we can not forget the huge influence in recent times that
Latin music has had in jazz or fusion music, rhythms, harmonies and
melodies of Latin popular music. Through the great masters such as
Paquito D'Rivera and Astor Piazzola we have witnessed a great popularity
of Latin music in the world of Jazz. This is a fresh and lively program
that will delight young and old.
