fandango

An 18th-century Spanish dance in moderate to fast triple time (3/8 or 3/4), danced by a couple with the accompaniment of a guitar and castanets. Fandangos are found in Mozart's Le nozze di Figaro/The Marriage of Figaro (1786), Gluck's Don Juan (1761), and Rimsky-Korsakov's Capriccio espagnol/Spanish Capriccio (1887).
