Taurine Music

This section contains links to musical pieces with taurine themes. We know it's arbitrary, but music written to be performed theatrically (opera, musical comedy, etc.) is cataloged on the "theater" page. Our apologies if that's confusing.


Bullfight
A short musical exercise by Hiroshi Hattori, a student in Numama Junior High School (Japan),composed as part of a Catalan-Japanese cross-cultural education program. If you would like to hear it (and, send him your reaction) -- and if your computer is equiped with RealAudio -- you can hear it from a catalan, english, or spanish page.

Bullfight
on the debut album (Scarified) of a group called Dirt Merchants

In Old Mexico
Music & Lyrics by Tom Lehrer -- bound to offend more than a few, but that was intended by this American writer of comic/satyrical songs

The Matador
Lyrics to the song by the band, Immortal Chorus

Met her at the bullfight
by a band called Dream Kitchen. Try-before-you-buy. You can listen to a 120k excerpt, or the entire 3m (pop, R & B) song. Provided by IUMA (the Internet Underground Music Archive).

Network Music
A production music library with a searchable catalog. Enter "bullfight" in their "descriptive word" field, and see what they offer. If your computer is equiped with RealAudio, you can listen to short clips from a number of bullfight selections (we use the term 'bullfight' very, very loosely here -- as do they. don't expect to hear la virgen de la macarena).

Les Toros
Lyrics to the song by Jacques Brel (en français) -- with photo of the composer
