Gitano: Zarzuela Arias (2007) more music like this

performed by Rolando Villazón (tenor), Comunidad de Madrid Orchestra
composed by Agustín Pérez Soriano, Amadeo Vives, Federico Moreno Torroba, Jacinto Guerrero, José María Cano, José Serrano, Pablo Luna, Pablo Sorozabal, Reveriano Soutullo Otero / Juan Vert Carbonell

Mexican tenor Rolando Villazón has been touted as a worthy successor to Plácido Domingo, and on the basis of this recording of romanzas from Spanish zarzuelas, that claim should be taken seriously. Villazón's large voice is extraordinarily like Domingo's, with rock-solid technique, heroic tone, and impassioned delivery. He sings with a thrilling ...

It's hard to walk through the classical section of a record store without tripping over several Plácido Domingo compilations, so buyers can afford to be picky when choosing one. Any respectable account of his career needs to represent his place in the pantheon of great operatic voices, but also the unparalleled range and diversity of his work ...

The zarzuela is a centuries-old Spanish vocal genre, originally homegrown at a Palacio de la Zarzuela near Madrid and often classed with the singspiel, operetta, and other national styles of semi-popular, usually comic vocal music. But it had a deeper national identity than any of these, and it absorbed influences from Italian opera in the ...

Not every opera superstar, admired by everyone from cognoscenti to ordinary pop fans, would, in late career, plunge into new vocal territory and virtually unknown repertoire. But that is what José Carreras has done with his admirable release Malinconia d'amore. From the cover you might conclude that this was another in a long series of semi-pop ...

Zarzuela is the Spanish equivalent of operetta; although on the surface it sounds operatic, it may contain spoken dialogue inserts as well. The six-disc set Zarzuelas on Naïve consists of four complete zarzuelas issued on the Astrée Auvidis label in the 1990s, all four acknowledged as classics of the genre: Emilio Arrieta's Marina, Tomás Bretón's ...
