Resumen
This work consists of the selection and elaboration of four arrangements for the guitar solo format of the four pasillos: Que es Amar, A Quién Buscas, Este es mi Sufrimiento, De Amor me Muero, and originally written for piano and previously selected from the catalog musical prepared by musicologist Lenin Estrella Aráuz, which were set considering the format, genre and musical style. The four arrangements focused on modifying the following musical elements: Form, Melody, Rhythm, and Harmony; and, the adaptation of the instrumental technique. In other words, the works for the piano format are performed on the guitar. This work consists of two chapters that are divided as follows: The first chapter refers to the Ecuadorian pasillo and the musical career of Alfonso Aráuz where the historical context of the Ecuadorian pasillo and the musical characteristics of that genre will be revealed, In other words, a brief summary of the composer's biography and his repertoire will be presented in general terms.
