A composition for violin and orchestra supposedly inspired by this ethnic group’s music opens “G, up to C, D, long E-flat, D, turn on D, C.” A soprano of this ethnicity is symbolized by a “fate motif” beginning with fortissimo tremolo D-A double-stops on strings. A sustained trill on low E accompanies a ballet scene in which a woman of this ethnicity exorcizes the ghost of her dead husband in a “Ritual (*) Fire Dance.” A high-register aragonaise begins a fantasy on an operatic woman of this ethnicity by Pablo de Sarasate that quotes her seguidilla. A ballet about these people, El amor brujo, is by a composer who repopularized an Andalusian genre of these people characterized by guitar and clapping. For 10 points, Carmen is a member of what itinerant ethnic group that developed flamenco music? ■END■
