Jarvis Conservatory, El Barberillo de Lavapiés: Prelude and Students Dance

This scene is from Zarzuela El Barberillo de Lavapiés which was performed live at the Jarvis Conservatory, Napa, CA in June of 2005. A barber is a central figure of this Zarzuela, following the role model created by French author Beaumarchais. In trying to protect a Marquesa he and his dressmaker girlfriend become involved in a conspiracy to overthrow the Spanish government. Between beautiful musical numbers, amusing situations and great dancing a change of government takes place.
The Jarvis Conservatory brings the charm and beauty of Zarzuela to the English-speaking as well as Spanish-speaking audiences. All spoken parts are performed in English while the songs remain in their original Spanish. Featuring Spanish and English subtitles.

Extraordinario! Sus bailarines son muy buenos, Y a la vez tocan las castañuelas, que no es tan común. Fantástica puesta en escena. Buenísima pronunciación.

Adelante!
