RE: Music Theory: Why? (in reply to Morante)

ORIGINAL: Morante quote:
It is actually Fandangos de Santa Eulalia that go to A This has always been my favourite fandango. Now it reminds me of a long night of juerga with José Millán, when we ended up in a bar at 5 am, with doors closed and 3 or 4 aficionados. Eventually José decided to sing fandangos. I know than Alosno is usually accompanied in A, but in Cádiz all are accompanied in E, to which I am acustomed. However José started in A. All went well for 20 minutes until he sang por Santa Eulalia. Since we were all rather less than sober, my befuddled mind could not think of the next chord. So I stopped playing. José stopped singing. I looked at him and said "José, I think it´s time to go home" He, even drunker than me, agreed. Así se aprende For some reason I have been thinking this was just one of several that uses the same type of melody. Anyway, Sevillano has a cool version that is free of compas (fandango naturales). The chord you missed was D Major!!! darn it, next time! For more advanced but practical examples of harmony and theory, analyze this: http://youtu.be/qoLS9We9hl4 I would have called the A/B, B11, and the G/C Cmaj9, but it's context issue again I guess?
