About this Event
This classical concert features solos and ensembles of the most well-known Zarzuelas of all time.
Zarzuela is a traditional Spanish musical genre that originated in the 17th century and has since evolved into a distinctive lyric form combining operatic, theatrical, and musical elements, featuring a mix of sung and spoken parts.
The genre found its way to the Americas during the colonial period and subsequently experienced a notable expansion and adaptation in the New World. As Spanish culture took root in Latin America, the genre merged with indigenous musical traditions, creating a unique fusion that reflected the cultural diversity of the region.
Featuring international singers Lucia Panizza, David Rivera Bozón, Jessica Sanz, and Juan Suárez, and Dr. Libor Dudas on the piano.
As a Hispanic lead nonprofit organization, it is part of Boston Opera & Zarzuela's mission to share our musical heritage in Boston.
This program is supported in part by a grant from Mass Cultural Council, and by East Boston Foundation.
Boston Opera & Zarzuela, a non-profit organization for the Performing Arts, strives to enrich the cultural landscape within its community through performance, research, and education of the vast lyric repertoire, including Opera, Zarzuela, and Oratorio.
