María La Tempranica
(Torroba, after Giménez)

Sélica Pérez Carpio, Felisa Herrero, Delfín Pulido. c. Federico Moreno Torroba
Blue Moon BMCD 7544 [extracts]

Five extracts from Torroba's operatic reworking of La tempranica. As so often when adapting his own or other composers' work, Torroba seemed to lose his customary taste and musical discrimination in the process. The results are curious, but frankly a mere vulgarisation of the great original.
