Tribute to La Zarzuela
The Instituto Cervantes in Leeds presents this beautiful Zarzuela concert to discover Spanish classical music in the stunning Clothworkers Centenary Concert Hall at the Music School from the University of Leeds.
Somebody with knowledge of West End's musicals, operetta or opera will find some aspects of familiarity in Zarzuela, the Spanish popular opera which reached its definitive form in the 19th century as a mixture of instrumental music, singing, dancing.
Tribute to La Zarzuela is a fantastic classical music concert with the award-winning soprano Laura Alonso Padín and the famous pianist and composer Manuel Valencia Segarra in a repertoire with classics of the Zarzuela by authors such as Manuel de Falla, Joaquín Nin and Amadeo Vives, among others.
