The Universidad Popular Carmen de Michelena in Tres Cantos is hosting a session of the 'Entender la Música 3' seminar on April 10, exploring Spanish baroque zarzuela arias with Professor Germán Labrador.

This event is part of a broader series organized by the UPCM, designed to guide attendees through the evolution of music, spanning from the 15th century to the 20th century. The primary goal is to equip the audience with the necessary tools for a deeper and more conscious understanding of musical works.
The specific session on April 10 will focus on three Spanish baroque zarzuela arias, a genre that merges scenic and musical elements, forming an essential part of the country's cultural heritage. A detailed analysis of these pieces will allow participants to delve into their peculiarities and the expressive resources that define this repertoire.
The presentation will be given by Germán Labrador López de Azcona, who is a full professor of music at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid and director of the Centro Superior para la Investigación y Promoción de la Música. His intervention will offer an academic and informative perspective, facilitating the understanding of the works from a technical yet accessible approach for all audiences.
The seminar will take place in the auditorium of the Centro 21 de Marzo, in Tres Cantos, scheduled between 7:00 PM and 8:30 PM, as part of the municipality's cultural program.
