Musical Term of the Week

Thursday I spent the day in Portland with a couple friends, and after we'd lounged at the Boulangerie, we made our way to Powells, where I bought a pocket music dictionary. I stole the idea from a friend, and I have found it to be fascinating! I know, I know, only a music geek thinks a pocket music dictionary is cool, but I've accepted my geekdom. Anyways, here's the Musical Term of the Week:


zapateado (tsah-pah-teh-AH-doh) : A Spanish dance in triple time characterized by rhythmic heel stamping.


Use in at least three sentences this week to astound your musical friends!
