Abstract

The present work consists of an approach to interpretation and performance proposal of the Concerto in D minor for Piccolo by Ecuadorian composer Carlos A. Ortega. The proposal is based on a formal analysis according to the methodology of Dante Grela, a renowned Argentinean composer; and a technical analysis which includes the instrumental techniques required to perform the piece, especially those associated with register, interpretative breathing, sound, articulation, and intonation. The dissertation explores essential concepts such as musical interpretation, as well as the musical analysis of the piece which serves as a resource for its proper performance. In addition, the work includes an overview of the composer’s musical life to help contextualize the piece by collecting information about his experiences, education, and the musical activity he carried out starting at an early age. All the aspects mentioned above are relevant to the approach to interpretation and performance proposal of the Concerto
