abstract
With this research, I intended to make a journey through Siete Canciones Populares Españolas (1914) by Manuel de Falla (1876-1946), in its arrangement for cello and piano by Maurice Maréchal (1892-1964), exploring the impact of the most common techniques in singing, such as phrasing, prosody, accentuation or diction among others, on the cello. My main goal was being aware of the potential contact points between both instruments to improve my interpretation. Besides the exploration of the vocal technique, in each part of the research the most characteristic aspects of each song were analyzed. In the first cycle, I focused on longer phrasing and breathing in accordance with the text to generate pauses in the melody, using El paño moruno, Nana and Asturiana. In the second cycle, I focused on the diction and articulation, and also on the techniques of flamenco playing in Cancion and Polo. Finally, the third cycle explores the use of vibrato and projection using the Jota.
