Conversation about 'La dolores', an emblematic title of Spanish poetry that premiered at the Teatro de la Zarzuela in 1895, and has not been performed on this stage since 1937. 'La dolores' by Tomás Bretón, whose 100th anniversary has passed since his death. Another monument of our heritage this season, whose importance lies not only in the drama of its plot or in its brilliant score, but also in the fact that with this work Bretón finally manages to compose a purely Spanish opera, in which he shows us the constant struggle and survival of a woman of great strength in a hostile and very masculine environment that rejects her for lacking the honor that they themselves took from her. Participating in the conversation are the Stage Director Amelia Ochandiano, the Musical Director Guillermo García Calvo, the soprano Saioa Hernández and the tenor Jorge de León. From January 27 to February 12, 2023 at the Teatro de la Zarzuela.

Journey through Zarzuela (chap. 27) | The Dolores

An emblematic title of Spanish poetry that premiered in this same theater in 1895, and has not been performed on this stage since 1937, returns to the Teatro de la Zarzuela. 'La dolores' by Tomás Bretón, whose 100th anniversary has passed since his death. Another monument of our heritage this season, whose importance lies not only in the drama of its plot or in its brilliant score, but also in the fact that with this work Bretón finally manages to compose a purely Spanish opera, in which he shows us the constant struggle and survival of a woman of great strength in a hostile and very masculine environment that rejects her for lacking the honor that they themselves took from her.

English

Vuelve al Teatro de la Zarzuela un título emblemático de la lírica española que se estrenó en este mismo teatro en 1895, y desde 1937 no se representa en este escenario. ‘La dolores’ de Tomás Bretón, de quien se cumplen los 100 años de su muerte. Otro monumento de nuestro patrimonio en esta temporada, cuya importancia reside no solo en el dramatismo de su argumento o en su genial partitura, que también, sino en que con esta obra Bretón consigue por fin componer una ópera puramente española, en la que nos muestra la constante lucha y supervivencia de una mujer de gran fortaleza en un entorno hostil y muy masculino que la rechaza por carecer de la honra que ellos mismos le arrebataron.
