This unique lyric concert features a vibrant program of opera and zarzuela solos and ensembles, woven together with the warmth and sparkle of beloved holiday songs.

From the dramatic flair of operatic arias to the spirited charm of zarzuela, the program offers a rich and varied musical journey that highlights the expressive power of the human voice. The festive selections add a joyful seasonal touch, making this concert a perfect way to welcome the holidays with friends, family, and fellow music lovers.

Zarzuela is a traditional Spanish musical genre that originated in the 17th century and has since evolved into a distinctive lyric form combining operatic, theatrical, and musical elements, featuring a mix of sung and spoken parts.

The genre found its way to the Americas during the colonial period and subsequently experienced a notable expansion and adaptation in the New World. As Spanish culture took root in Latin America, the genre merged with indigenous musical traditions, creating a unique fusion that reflected the cultural diversity of the region.

Free Admission, Suggested Donation $5 - $20

As a Hispanic lead nonprofit organization, it is part of Boston Opera & Zarzuela's mission to share our musical heritage in Boston.

This program is supported in part by a grant from the Boston Cultural Council, administered by the Mayor’s Office of Arts and Culture, and by the East Boston Foundation.

Boston Opera & Zarzuela, a non-profit organization for the Performing Arts, strives to enrich the cultural landscape within its community through performance, research, and education of the vast lyric repertoire, including Opera, Zarzuela, and Oratorio.

La Zarzuela es un género musical tradicional español que se originó en el siglo XVII y desde entonces ha evolucionado hacia una forma lírica distintiva que combina elementos operísticos, teatrales y musicales, con una mezcla de partes cantadas y habladas.

El género llegó a América durante el período colonial y, posteriormente, experimentó una notable expansión y adaptación en el Nuevo Mundo. A medida que la cultura española se asentaba en América Latina, el género se fusionó con las tradiciones musicales indígenas, creando una combinación única que reflejaba la diversidad cultural de la región.

Entrada gratuita, donación sugerida de $5 a $20.

Como organización sin fines de lucro dirigida por hispanos, es parte de la misión de Boston Opera & Zarzuela compartir nuestro patrimonio musical en Boston.

Este programa cuenta con el apoyo parcial de una subvención del Boston Cultural Council, administrada por la Oficina del Alcalde de Artes y Cultura, y de la East Boston Foundation.

Boston Opera & Zarzuela, una organización sin fines de lucro para las Artes Escénicas, se esfuerza por enriquecer el entorno cultural de su comunidad a través de la interpretación, la investigación y la educación del vasto repertorio lírico, que incluye Ópera, Zarzuela y Oratorio.
