Program

Satire, intrigue, incredible stories, passionate love affairs and a good dose of humour. All this combined with music full of colour and rhythm is what defines the zarzuela. The Barcelona Symphonic Band brings us a compilation of some of the best-known zarzuelas. We will hear two of Ruperto Chapí’s most popular works, El Tambor de Granaderos and La Revoltosa. From Amadeu Vives’ Bohemios, the Band will perform a historical transcription by Joan Lamote de Grignon. La Venta de los Gatos by José Serrano, which is considered an opera, is one of the Valencian composer’s most profound compositions. We will also be able to enjoy Gigantes y Cabezudos, by Manuel Fernández Caballero, where folklore takes centre stage, and La Gran Vía, by Federico Chueca, a work that perfectly represents the comedy and exuberance of zarzuela.
