Abstract
Description
Gift of Dr. Mary Jane Esplen.
Piano [instrumentation]
F [key]
Moderato [tempo]
La paloma (Madrid, 1859, Paris, 1864) remains perhaps the most popular Spanish song ever written. Bizet adapted his song El arreglito for the habanera in the first act of Carmen; apparently he thought it was a folksong. On learning his mistake ? it had been published in a French translation, along with 24 other songs, in Iradier?s Fleurs d?Espagne (Paris, 1864) ? he added a note in the vocal score of Carmen acknowledging the source -- New Grove (Carr/Preciado/Stevenson) [note]
Popular song ; arrangement [form/genre]
