Description
El Camino Real (“The Royal Road” or “The King'sHighway”) was commissioned by the 581st Air Force Band and its co mmander, Lt. Col. Ray E. Toler. This fantasy is based on a series of Spanish folk melodies and underscored by chord progressions used by generations of flamenco guitarists, whose fiery style and brilliant playing have created a vast body of what many consider authentic Spanish music.
The music follows a traditional fast-slow-fast pattern, with a firstsection that is based on the dance form known as the jota, and s econd contrasting section derived from the fandango.
