Original

The Habanera finds its origins in slow Cuban song and dance and went on o become very popular in Spain. It is in simple duple time and has a dotted rhythm. Probably one of the most famous examples of the Habanera is found in Bizet's opera Carmen. This guitar solo is full of the richness and depth which is typical of such a piece. The strength of the melody helps conjure up in the imagination the elegant, exaggerated movements of the Latin dancers.
