Fandango de San Cecilio

I once ran in to a pilgrimage from Granada, with horse carriages decorated with flowers and everybody dressed in folkloric dresses. On the pilgrimage that last for days, they sing and dance Sevillanas and Fandangos.  Fandango is an old folksong, which converted to flamenco in many  versions.

My piece has a folkloric tune and develop into different variations of the same theme. The parts are interrupted by cadences, inspired by the piece “El Café de Chinitas”from García Lorca´s arrangements of old Spanish folksongs.

San Cecilio is the Patron of Granada.
