The character of Elisa de Montellano was played by Ruth Iniesta, who with a deep timbre was able to captivate the audience, receiving great ovations at the end of her performance despite not having a great romance. The same could be said of the rest of the singers Fernando Latorre and Marifé Nogales, whose performances in duos and concert performers contributed great quality to a performance characterized by the rhythm, inspiration and vivacity of the best Barbieri. The leading sextet was a luxury in the canoro and very dedicated in the acting, although the females stood out more than the men. We congratulate the managers of the Teatro de la Zarzuela for this initiative and we hope that this and other zarzuelas by the great Barbieri take the stage doing entire cycles of this composer. Without intending to make mistakes ... the Teatro de la Zarzuela has to its credit productions of "Barberillo de Lavapies", Pan y Toros ", Gloria y peluca", Play with fire "," The diamonds of the crown "... which could perfectly make up a Barbieri cycle ... along with the one we have discussed in this writing and others that could be added.
