Las Hijas del Zebedeo by Chapí
If you happen to like operetta and for some reason aren't yet familiar with the genre of zarzuela then it's the best time to learn more about it. Zarzuela originates from Spain and merges choreography with vocal and orchestral music. While solos and choruses are sung, the genre is also full of spoken scenes and interludes. Talking about composers without whom zarzuela wouldn't be what it is now, I feel like Ruperto Chapí should be mentioned foremost. Occasionally his works are staged, and if you are given an opportunity to see something of his in the concert hall, try not to miss it. Alternatively, for home recital Las Hijas del Zebedeo would be a good choice. Find the piano score of this piece here: Las Hijas del Zebedeo.
