MPR: Viva the zarzuela
Tagged: radioPosted on: April 11th, 2007“Over the last decade or so, Hispanic singers have been rediscovering the charm of the zarzuela and introducing it to a new and appreciative audience.
Theres a lot to appreciate in tenor Rolando Villazon’s new release, “Gitano.” Its a collection of romanzas, the arias of zarzuela. And music writer Christopher Webbers liner notes are a delight, offering a concise history of the zarzuela and a series of synopses that set the stage for each romanza.”
