JOTA DE MURCIA
Their origin remain unclear.
The etymology (origin) of the word could come from the verb XOTAR (skip).
Quoted for the first time in 1761 in a farce (sainete), but it seems that already existed from XVII Century. His compass is to be written in ternary 3 / 4 or 6 / 8.
They are built mostly with major scales and it consists of two parts:
- One instrumental, as a ritornello (chorus).
- Another one is the verse, in which the singers try to show off their powers.
Jota de Murcia
Malagueña
Its origin seems to be in the eighteenth century.
Sometimes confused with Fandango.
It hasn’t a specified form.
Depends on the singer, it shows a happy or sad expression on their lyrics.
Retains the merits of the Andalusian poetry rooted in flamenco singing. It is constructed with a mixture of major scales, minor and flamenco.
