Selva
Jhoely Garay's vibrant piece, "Selva," is part of a collection of compositions for jazz orchestra inspired by the sounds of nature of different natural ecosystems in Garay's native Mexico. The project's mission is to honor nature through music, creating awareness of the importance of natural areas and transmitting a message that encourages the protection and conservation of natural resources.
Selva's partido alto samba groove is buoyant, syncopated, and lively. Garay skillfully incorporates the call-and-response nature of the partido alto throughout the piece, using the colors of woodwinds and flugelhorns to bring her soaring melodies to life.
