Transcrições para violão da suíte BWV 1007: equilíbrio estrutural, polifonia implícita e procedimentos de reelaboração analisados em J. S. Bach

Abstract

This dissertation studies the process of transcription of Johann Sebastian Bach’s Suite I for cello (BWV 1007) for the modern guitar. Our premise is that the composer has reworked his music according to the polyphonic capacity of the desired instrument, and we map his own strategies observed in the recomposition of his solo strings works (BWV 1001-1012 for violin and cello) for the lute (BWV 995, 1000, 1006a). In our bibliographical revision, we direct our focus and analytical intent towards implied polyphony and structural equilibrium, starting from the comprehension of the fortspinnung form. In the existing transcriptions of this suite, our analytical method is the selection and comparison of three versions in a colored score which identifies the strategies used according to the mapping of Bach’s recompositions. We looked at the whole transcriptions of the suite of Göran Söllscher, Tilman Hoppstock e John Duarte. In the Prelude, we added versions of Andrés Segovia/Manuel Ponce, Edson Lopes, Marcos Diaz, Jodacil Damasceno, John Mills and Ana Vidovic. At last, we transcribe the Suite I for the six strings guitar, including sugestions for seven strings guitar, integrating analysis and studied literature.
