The Sound of Zarzuela

"The Sound of Zarzuela" brings together a wide-ranging collection of classic and remastered highlights from the Spanish lyric-dramatic tradition known as zarzuela. With tracks from iconic composers like Federico Chueca, Tomás Bretón, and Jacinto Guerrero, this playlist covers everything from rousing choruses to playful habaneras and deeply romantic romanzas. Performances by legends such as Plácido Domingo, Elina Garanca, and Alfredo Kraus add a rich vocal presence to the orchestral flair throughout.
