Morales De Anta Lacosta Miquel Alonso: Assorted Coplas. (Spanish Songs Of Love Death Jeal
DOMINGO PLACIDO PASION ESPAÑOLA
This is one of Plácido Domingo s most personal albums to date, as he performs coplas, the traditional popular songs of Hispanic origin with which he grew up. Coplas express drama, profess love, impart humor, describe history or just comment on everyday life. In Spain the genre had a boom in the 1930s, when many composers of popular songs and light classical music contributed to the tradition with art songs. Domingo has made a personal selection of coplas he describes them as mini operas and recorded them in Madrid with the Orquesta de la Comunidad de Madrid under Miguel Roa. With splendid new arrangements, this recording revives a beautiful, nostalgic genre. Pasión Española will be DG s priority Hispanic project for 2008 the must-have album for all lovers of Domingo s art as well as for Spanish and Latin-American people all over the world.
