Golijov's 'Ainadamar' with Blue, Villalón, Mack and Tejada from New York

Osvaldo Golijov's 'Ainadamar' is an opera to a libretto by David Henry Hwang. It dramatizes the life and work of poet-playwright Federico García Lorca, who was assassinated by Fascist forces at the start of the Spanish Civil War for his socialist politics and homosexuality. His story emerges through the memories of Catalan actress Margarita Xirgu, Lorca’s muse, who reminisces to her student Nuria. Performers: Margarita Xirgu: Angel Blue. Nuria: Elena Villalón. Federico García Lorca:  Daniela Mack. Ramón Ruiz Alonso: Alfredo Tejada. Metropolitan Opera Choir and Orchestra. Conductor: Miguel Harth-Bedoya. Live.
