Talk:Malagueña (song)

message: A huge amount of marching bands perform this song, and I think of it more as identified with Blast! than anything else
----
To long-term drum corps fans, it's most linked to Madison Scouts...even before the 1988 version.  Cadets played it in 2003 (I think), and while it was a good arrangement and performance, it's always a Madison chart for most I know.
Same way Boston's version of "La Fiesta" reminds me more of 84 Blue Devils' version -- but I was IN BD that year, so I'm a touch biased!

message: Shouldn't we first provide a definition of what a Malaguena is before going into examples of it?
A Malaguena is actually a Flamenco dance style from Malaga in south east Spain. Please see . 
Furthermore, Malaguena is not a song written by Lecuona, it is actually a piano piece from his piano composition 'Suite Andalusia'. Please see Ernesto Lecuona. Albeniz also composed a 'Malaguena', which is a piece from his famous piano composition - 'Espana', Opus 165.
Please correct this article accordingly.FRM SYD 04:53, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: many people believe this is a traditional melody first arranged for guitar by Tarrega, either prior to or independently from the first published arrangement by Lecuona -- comments and clarification welcome - Oniscoid (talk) 01:19, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

message: I was thinking that this is the first piece that Esteban teaches on one of his instructional vidoes, but I'm not sure if it's the same song. Someone who knows should verify here. If so, it might be worth listing. ~ Wakanda's Black Panther! (contribs) 01:42, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I removed an external link and in-line reference to a dailymotion.com video as per wikipedia guidelines concerning links to copyright-violating material.  The referenced dailymotion.com video clip of the Stan Kenton Orchestra playing "Malagueña" is presumably taken from the Shanachie Entertainment DVD, Jazz Scene USA - Frank Rosolino and Stan Kenton. This DVD includes Kenton's perfomance of "Malagueña" from a 1962 TV broadcast of Steve Allen's Jazz Scene USA program.  
If someone could provide evidence that the dailymotion.com video clip is posted by or with the permission of the copyright holder, then this link could be re-inserted in the article.  Otherwise it should not be included.

message: I performed this song on the guitar on the streets in downtown dallas and a passer-by stopped and heard and then began to weep. I came to a finish to see if the man was alright. a friend had to interpret for me from spanish to english. The man said that the song traditionally was a about a wealthy daughter and a poor servant who could only burn for passion for one another and never pursue each other. Either die in regret or like Romeo and Juliette. However I have not seen any confirmation to this story other than the fact the man in the street wept saying the song reminded him of his mother and their likewise experience.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.237.231.244 (talk) 04:15, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
