4.0 out of 5 stars Irresistible, but the track list is out of sequence, November 18, 2007
By 
Zarzuela (Ottawa, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Grandes Pasodobles Toreros (Audio CD)
Whatever you may think about bullfighting, it can't be denied that the music is irresistible. This collection of ten favorites includes at least two that are guaranteed to raise your heart rate: Padilla's "El relicario" and Alonso's "La Calesera", which is actually one of the numbers from his zarzuela of that name. But it seems that a particularly unruly bull has got loose and trampled all over the track list provided in the liner notes, which is very different from the actual sequence on the CD. Even if you don't know the tunes, you can see that the timings given in the list are different from those that your player will show. I have been able to identify the tunes with the help of other performances available online. I have also corrected the name of the composer of El gato montés, which is Penella, not Panella. Here is the corrected track listing for this CD:

1. En er mundo (Quintero-Fernández) 3:14
2. La Calasera (Alonso) 2:55
3. La Virgen de la Macarena (Monteverde) 2:54
4. El relicario (Padilla) 2:43
5. El Vito (Olivera-Padilla) 2:43
6. Suspiros de España (Alvarez) 3:58
7. El gato montés (Penella) 3:14
8. Galas imperiales (De Arriba) 2:42
9. Gallito (Lope) 2:54
10. Francisco Alegre (Quintero-León-Quiroga) 2:05
