A STUDY OF MULTICULTURALISM IN 20TH CENTURY GUITAR MUSIC AND THE BRAZILIAN ELEMENTS IN THE MUSIC OF ROLAND DYENS by Daniel Duarte Submitted to the faculty of the Jacobs School of Music in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree, Doctor of Music Indiana University December 2016 Accepted by the faculty of the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Music Doctoral Committee ______________________________________ Ayana Smith, Research Director ______________________________________ Ernesto Bitetti, Chair ______________________________________ Luke Gillespie ______________________________________ Elzbieta Szmyt December 07, 2016 Acknowledgments This dissertation is dedicated to the memory of Roland Dyens (1955-2016), a musician that has inspired a generation of composers and guitarists through his original and innovative works. Dyens passed on October 29, 2016 in Paris days after this document was approved by the Research Committee and just weeks prior to its public defense. Roland Dyens himself helped the present author to shape this research by kindly agreeing to an interview that is featured in the appendix of this document. Since this dissertation was written while Dyens was alive it was the decision of this author to only refer to him as a non- living composer in this section of the document and in the introduction of this research; therefore chapters two, three, conclusion and appendix will refer to Dyens as a living composer. In fact, Dyens is indeed alive through his music and his legacy as a composer, arranger and performer. I would like to express my profound gratitude to the members of my doctoral committee, including Professor Elzbieta Szmyt and Luke Gillespie for their commitment, since the first year of my Doctoral studies. I extend my gratitude to the Research Director of this project Dr. Ayana Okeeva Smith for her guidance, availability and confidence on the field of musical multiculturalism. To the chair of my doctoral committee and mentor, Maestro Ernesto Bitetti, I can only express gratitude for his guidance throughout my studies, as well as for his generosity and constant support in all areas of my professional career. I also would like to thank the Presser Foundation and Espen Jensen for the Graduate Music Award that funded part of the research related to this document. Lastly, I thank my wife Casey for her partnership and my parents, Celso and Ligia for their belief in education and their constant support, as well as to my sisters Mariana and Leticia.
