Florin Florentin RĂDUCANU, Felix Constantin GOLDBACH Symphonism with Jazz Influences from the Perspective of the Clarinet and Saxophone Education, Research, Creation/Vol.11, No.1, 2025 The study addresses a less researched field in the European space and, very little, in the local musicological research - symphonic jazz and symphonism with jazz influence. The collaboration between the authors of the study was carried out in order to reveal the aspects of symphonic creation with jazz influence from the perspective of the clarinet and the saxophone, a family of aerophones with common roots. Historical reality reveals to us that the great European composers, such as Stravinsky, Rachmaninov, Ravel, Milhaud, etc. were particularly interested in the practice and theory of jazz music, many of them being influenced by the pioneer of symphonic jazz, George Gershwin. Moreover, Stravinsky composed and dedicated the concert, analyzed in this study, to the jazz clarinetist, Woody Hermann, the composer personally working with the jazz Big band to which he added several instruments typical of the symphony orchestra.
