Canciones de Olmedo
by Jóvenes Clásicos
About the performance
Canciones de Olmedo is a musical adaptation of Lope de Vega’s El caballero de Olmedo, featuring ten original songs. Verses penned by this towering figure in the comedia tradition become melancholic torch songs sung in a smoky nightclub. Love — unrequited or doomed — reaches its crescendo as the noble knight of Olmedo meets his tragic fate.
Canciones de Olmedo will be in Spanish, with English translations provided.
