Program Note

Its main refrain (eight bars of arpeggiated chords that go from E major to F major (with added 4 instead of 5) to G major and back) is arguably the best known snippet of Spanish music and is popular worldwide.

Several arrangements of the tune are often used for the Latin Paso Doble dance (to the point that, among Latin dancers, it is known as “the paso doble song” as it is very commonly played in competition due to the common custom for the choreography to match the phrasing and accents of the music for the full effect of the dance). It is also a chant played and voiced by the supporters of Eskişehirspor of Turkey. The song has also been used as the theme song for Pablo Sanchez in the Backyard Sports games.
