I thank composer Marlos Nobre for sharing his music with me, and for being prompt to help with all the other material and information needed. Most of all, I could not thank my family enough for their continuous support: my father Waldemar Feller for having introduced me to music, my mother Tecla Casanova Feller for always encouragingly enduring the distance and time apart, my extended American family Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Boling for all their support, and my wife Mary, for her love and patience throughout my studies. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS List of Tables .................................................................................................................................. v List of Musical Examples .............................................................................................................. vi Abstract.......................................................................................................................................... ix 1.
