This week audiences will get a chance to hear the latest by legendary tenor Plácido Domingo and will be able to experience acclaimed productions from the Massimo and Teatro Real. Here is a look at the highlights of the week.

Volver

Plácido Domingo releases his latest album, adding another record to his now legendary discography. This time he collaborates with the world-renowned Spanish Guitarist Pablo Sáinz Villegas. The new album, entitled “Volver,” features Iberian and Latin America songs alongside three solo works for the guitar: the Spanish coplas, nostalgic fado, and Mexican bolero.

The album includes pieces such as Violeta Parras’s “Gracias a la vida,” which was inducted into the Latin Grammy Hall of Fame in 2013, as well as “Volver” by Alfredo Le Pera, and Carlos Gardel and Álvaro Carrillo’s immensely successful “Sabor a mí.” The new arrangements were prepared by twelve-time Grammy winner Rafa Sardina.
