About this event
In the final years of Queen Isabel II's reign, a beautiful innkeeper's daughter finds herself caught between two impossible loves: a dashing soldier who chases ambition over devotion, and a wealthy landowner who would burn down a monarchy to win her heart. Fernanda, an intimate chamber reduction of the larger Luisa Fernanda, is Spanish zarzuela at its most romantic and political. The revolution and heartbreak unfold in the same breath, set to music so achingly beautiful it helped define an entire national sound. Don't miss this masterpiece of the Spanish stage, considered by many to be the last great romantic zarzuela ever written. Produced in partnership with Opera Hispanica.
