Cuchuflo's Jig
Cuchuflo's Jig is a harp piece that's sectioned in two parts. The first part, called "La Cuchufla", represents a neighbourhood girl, that "El Cuchuflo" is in love with.
It sounds like those slow blues from the canteens in the American Far west.
The second part represents "El Cuchuflo", a young harpist boy, fan of the celtic music, the mythology. He's kind of like "Harry Potter", someone who hallucinates seeing Unicorns, elves, fairies. A dreamer. Kind of a "contemporary elf".
This is the reason why this second part is a little Celtic, with an "Irish jig" rhythm. But the third variation of the second part, has a touch from the first one, where you can see the union between both characters, with the typical "blues slides" in the melody.
"Cuchuflo" and "Cuchufla" were the romantic nicknames they used to call each other. 8 pages.
