Today I’m analyzing “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” by Lin-Manuel Miranda from Encanto, focusing on its Spanish-influenced harmony, motif-driven melody writing, and the dense use of internal rhymes and prosody. We look at how conversational melodies follow the chords, how wordplay reinforces meaning, and why the final section successfully layers previously introduced ideas without becoming chaotic.
