A STUDY OF LANGUAGE IN THE FANTASIA-SONATA DELL'IMMIGRAZIONE DE THIAGO COLOMBO
Fantasia-Sonata Dell’Immigrazione. Classical-Guitar. Thiago Colombo. Idiom
This work studies, through the work Fantasia-Sonata Dell'Immigrazione (2014), by the Brazilian composer Thiago Colombo de Freitas (n.1981), a way of associating the idiomatic identification to the process of creation of the performance, taking into account the fact that the more one knows about a work, the more tools and more authority the musician possesses to make his or her performance choices. In order to achieve this objective, some methodological choices were used, such as an interview with the composer himself, in order to obtain data that would initially complement and confirm some assumptions, such as the reference to culture in the whole process of designing the work in question. In addition, it was adopted for the idiomatic identification, the reference delimitation of Nascimento (2013). It was possible to verify that the expectations related to the use of references to the Italian culture (directly linked to one of the types of idioms here approached) were correct, and the composer was used of the most varied ways of evoking it in its composition. A fact that, in some cases, was determinant in the process of the performative choices. It is hoped that the ideas developed here will have a contribution role in the academic and musical space, serving as a theoretical reference for future works and also for the guidance of any musician interested in the work used here as an object of research.
