When I was in Rome, I attended a delightful harp concert, and the harpist played a short composition which I have encountered before. The piece was identified by its form (similar to "Berceuse" or "Passepied.") I'd seen examples before, and the timing looks complicated - too scary for me. Lots of dots and ties. The name is foreign sounding - like tagliatelle or ricotta, but those aren't it.

As I listened, I had an insight. This is the sound in music of somebody talking Spanish!

I've done some searching but haven't found the name. Anybody have any suggestions?
